Intro to Business Mindset and Patient Philosophy

SERIAL ENTREPRENEUR, HUSBAND, DENTIST

Hi, my name is Andrew Killgore, a serial entrepreneur, husband and dentist from Ohio, USA.

Today I’m an entrepreneur, investor and coach to business owners both in dentistry and other retail service and tech industries.

When I was 27 years old, I left a corporate job where I was being fast-tracked to the top.

I quickly realized that the freedom I sought would only be experienced by me working for myself.

In 2005, I started my first practice then added another.  

Our life took a curve when our son Noah was born in Colorado with down syndrome.

He couldn’t breathe at the altitude we were living so we had to pick another place to live and this became Ohio.

I built multiple dental practices and businesses related to the dental industry.

My brand, the Afinia Dental group became the largest group in the Cincinnati Area.

In 2020, we were sought after by many private equity and corporate entities and my wife and I chose to sell.

We were seeking more meaning, peace and order in both our personal and professional lives and we needed a deep reset.

I took the next 3 years off to travel the world and see what is out there that I might have missed.

And I found that life is exciting, beautiful and inspiring when you truly step into it.

And this awareness should be shared with others who may have forgotten.

I thought about my past life as an entrepreneur and my new understanding of life.

I asked, “How can our personal lives and professional lives feel in balance so that we can enjoy life and contribute to others?”

The answer came back to me, “There is no personal life separate from the professional one. They must exist together.”
