26. In the present era, healthcare work can be a mix of difficulties and benefits. The continuous healthcare advancements have exerted immense pressure on healthcare systems across the globe. Moreover, the pandemic has instigated transformations in the healthcare sector, including telemedicine and virtual appointments. It is crucial to adjust to these changes and acquire new competencies to offer patients high-quality care. Dr. Nirav Patel is a multi-talented individual who has a passion for dentistry, business, and exploration. He enjoys the thrill of surviving challenging situations and is always looking for new experiences. Dr. Patel is a dynamic doctor who has brilliant ideas and a sympathetic attitude. He is deeply dedicated to his duties and always strives to provide the best possible care to his patients. various seminars, symposia, workshops, and conferences on different topics to acquire valuable knowledge and stay up-to-date with the latest advancements in his field. Centre and implemented his tactical rehabilitation plan. A Warm and Friendly Environment The image of a hospital in a person's mind is often associated with pain, fear, and anxiety. In order to change this perception, Dr. Patel and his team established the Teeth Care Centre with the concept of a hospital with hospitality. This approach emphasizes a warm and friendly environment for patients, equipped with state-of-the-art facilities that make treatments painless. Dr. Patel is an ambitious businessman with a clear, logical mind and a practical approach to problem-solving. He is determined to achieve his goals and become a leading figure in the global industry. As a philanthropist, he uses his wealth and technical expertise to support various organizations and individuals in need. Following the Legacy Dr. Patel comes from a family with a strong legacy in healthcare-related fields spanning three generations. Although there were doctors in various specialties in his family, no one was specifically involved in dentistry. Dr. Patel always had a desire to create something different in the healthcare service industry, which led him to establish the Teeth Care Centre with cutting-edge facilities. Dr. Patel has earned numerous accolades for his outstanding achievements at national and international levels. He holds a postgraduate degree in Orthodontics with honors from Maharashtra University of Health Sciences, a PhD degree from Pacific University, and an LL.B. from the School of Legal Studies and Research. To create a comfortable environment for patients, Teeth Care Centre offers a waiting area with a cafeteria to help alleviate their fears and anxiety. By providing this kind of infrastructure, the centre aims to stay ahead of the increasing competition in the industry and provide patients with a positive experience. The focus on hospitality and modern facilities sets Teeth Care Centre apart from traditional hospital settings and helps to change the perception of dental treatment as a stressful and unpleasant experience.

27. Quick money is not possible, and it is essential to put in the effort and dedication to achieve success. By doing so, emerging leaders can build a strong foundation and achieve long- term success in their chosen field. Dr. Patel recognizes that healthcare providers should focus on both skill and education, as well as gain knowledge on advanced technology and implement it accordingly. This is because technology plays a significant role in influencing healthcare practices, and those who do not adapt to it will be left behind in terms of profits and success. Teeth Care Centre influenced the industry with the concept of Hospital with Hospitality. People started to observe this concept of providing a warm & comfortable environment and that's how it influenced the industry with exceptional services. Dr. Patel asserts, "We have transparency in how we work with a Fixed Price list policy with no hidden charges, the kind of material we use and everything is displayed in our premises and mentioned on our website. Our working system functions through standard protocols for which we have SOPs (standard operating procedures)." He further adds that before starting the treatment, the team provides transparency to the patient regarding the procedure, price, etc. So, that's how it ensures a culture of integrity and the core values of the company. Gaining Knowledge on Advanced Technology In the past, healthcare providers operated in a traditional manner, where the expertise of doctors was the primary factor in patient care. However, with recent advancements in technology, the healthcare industry has been revolutionized. For instance, surgeries are now being performed using robotic guidance, which requires less skill and results in greater accuracy. To be a leader in the healthcare industry, it is imperative to embrace technology as soon as possible. Failure to do so will result in negative consequences. Therefore, the implementation of advanced technology is essential for healthcare providers to remain competitive and provide better care to patients. Patient Satisfaction is True Success Refining Leadership Skills Dr. Patel believes that dedication to work and a willingness to learn new things are essential traits to look for in a new team member. In today's world, technology is changing rapidly, and those who do not learn new things will fall behind. Dr. Patel acknowledges that leading a company to success is a challenging journey. In the Indian market, price- consciousness is prevalent, making it difficult to introduce the concept of a hospital with hospitality. Despite facing numerous obstacles initially, the company has overcome them through dedication and hard work. "Many innovative concepts we bought into the Indian market were accepted and implicated in the Indian market, and that is the reason we were able to achieve growth. Afterwards, we felt that the concept of a Hospital with Hospitality should spread to the maximum number of people, so in the next phase, we plan to avail our facility in another city," says Dr. Patel. To continue to grow as a visionary leader, it is crucial to adapt to changes in the market and think ahead of the market's demand. For emerging leaders, it can be a challenging time, especially in the Indian market where profit margins are low, and acquiring customers can be difficult. Therefore, emerging leaders must put in extra effort if they want to succeed, as the market is highly competitive. As someone with a healthcare background, Dr. Patel and the team at Teeth Care Centre have always strived to provide the best possible service to their patients. The ultimate satisfaction for him is seeing a patient leave with a smile and being happy with the service provided. Dr. Patel advises emerging leaders to focus more on putting in effort rather than focusing on quick money, as success cannot be achieved overnight. worldsleaders.com | 27
