Do I want to do engineering? Do I want to do medicine? Or want to do dentistry? And I still remember that day I called my mum while I was there and I said, “Mum, we don't know what to do.” And mum said, “I always wanted one son to be an engineer and one to be a doctor, but the rest is up to you. It's up to you.”  Sandeep Kumar   In This Episode   01.48 - Growing up in Punjab 08.15 - Learning the trade 10.28 - Coming to the UK 14.15 - Adjusting to the UK 16:08 - Starting in dentistry 20:38 - Birmingham Dental Hospital 26:55 - Setting up your practice 32:09 - Adding value to your practice 33:12 - Opening a second practice 36:22 - Invisalign 40:43 - House of Fraser 43:19 - Finding the confidence to be ambitious 46:36 - Managing multi-sites 50:50 - MiSmile 58:41 - MiSmile Academy 1:04:20 - Quitting clinical dentistry 1:08:49 - A day in the life 1:13:43 Legacy & last days on Earth   About Sandeep Kumar   Sandeep qualified as a dentist in India and moved to the UK in 1999.
