Episode 04: Redefining Dentistry: Balancing Integrity and Patient-Centered Care with Dr. Sara Mahmood

Dr. Sara Mahmood: How Integrity Built a Thriving Business

One of the best examples of integrity in business is Dr. Sara Mahmood, founder of Brush 365 and a guest on Heart of the Hustle.

She didn’t build her dental practice by following traditional industry norms.

She built it by focusing on ethical business practices, patient trust, and honesty—even when it wasn’t the “easiest” way to do business.

💡 Instead of pushing unnecessary treatments, she gives honest recommendations based on what patients truly need.
💡 Instead of prioritizing high-profit procedures, she focuses on patient-first care and long-term health.
💡 Instead of using hard sales tactics, she built a practice centered on education, prevention, and ethical decision-making.

And guess what?

📢 Patients trust her.
📢 Her business keeps growing.
📢 Her brand reputation speaks for itself.

This is what happens when integrity becomes your marketing strategy.

Because at the end of the day, trust is the best form of marketing there is.

Episode 03: The Future of Healthcare: How Direct Primary Care is Changing the Game with Dr. Alex Santiago

How Dr. Alex Santiago Built Her Brand Through Authenticity

In my episode with Dr. Alex Santiago, she shared her journey of breaking away from the traditional healthcare system to build something better.

She runs Bright Health, a direct primary care practice in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Instead of forcing patients through the headache of insurance, she offers a simple monthly fee that gives them direct access to care.

And let me tell you—this model is a game-changer.

Dr. Santiago didn’t start Bright Health to follow a trend. She did it because she saw a massive problem in the healthcare industry.

She saw patients frustrated with long wait times, surprise bills, and doctors who barely had time to listen.
She saw physicians burning out trying to keep up with the demands of insurance-driven healthcare.
She knew there had to be a better way—so she built it.

And THAT is the kind of authenticity that attracts loyal clients and raving fans.

What is a Patient Advocate?

A patient advocate is your go-to guide for navigating the complexities of the healthcare system. Think of them as your translator, organizer, and biggest cheerleader. They ensure you receive the best care possible while eliminating confusion.

What Does a Patient Advocate Do?

• Clarifies Medical Terms: Doctors often speak in technical jargon, leaving patients unsure of their next steps. A patient advocate translates this information into clear, actionable language.

• Organizes Your Care: They handle logistics like scheduling appointments and ensuring follow-ups, so you can focus on healing.

• Supports You Emotionally: Surgery isn’t just physically challenging—it’s emotionally draining too. Advocates offer reassurance every step of the way.
