Meet Dr. Robert Trujillo

Founder, Orthovated

"What I love most about what I do is helping others find real solutions to the real problems that are weighing them down…The same problems that are preventing them from living their best life."

Too often orthodontic professionals feel discouraged with the shortage of quality assistants, lack of training support, and guilt from not having enough time to train their new assistant effectively! As a result, your assistants feel overwhelmed from the fast paced and chaotic training process that goes along with “on the job training!” Without a foundation to the fundamentals of the orthodontic profession, growth is delayed, and job satisfaction is diminished. Consequently, it can take your practice well over a year to properly train your assistant only to lose them to burn out. The good news is that it no longer has to be this way!

Everyone deserves to be happy and love their career. It is important for our assistants to be challenged but also critical to be proficient and supported with quality resources. More importantly, we have to identify, in detail, our assistants  immediate and long term goals. With our progress tracker and accountability checkpoints, you can feel good knowing that your assistant is getting the best training and the foundation they need to find and build  joy as an orthodontic assistant!

We all know that teamwork makes the dream work! When your assistants skills are sharpened, diversified, and balanced, their work-life-balance will be optimized! Staff retention, loyalty, and positive team culture will skyrocket!  I believe that this shift is one of the most important missing ingredients to a happy, healthy, and productive orthodontic practice!
