Our Story
Menu
Praxis has roots from more than 47 years ago in the heart of Oklahoma City. In 1977 a new practitioner in a major metropolitan market wasn’t concerned with computer-based patient management systems, revenue cycle management, the internet, digital marketing and online reputation management, competition from national chains along with a complex legal and compliance environment that nearly takes a law degree to navigate.
We’ve learned a lot through the ups and downs of building a recognized brand, and a DSO that now has 38 locations across Oklahoma, Missouri, Arizona and Texas. The most significant contribution to our success over the years has been the caliber of talented people we’ve been fortunate to work with. That is what led to the collaboration between Jack Waldo and Chris Cummings, and what ultimately inspired us to form Praxis Dental Transitions. With Praxis, we bring together all the experience, processes and relationships we’ve built through a leading DSO and partner with practice owners to build value through excellent patient care, operational integrity, and proven business strategies.
Our vision is to redefine the standard of success in healthcare practice ownership, empowering our partners to achieve unprecedented growth and positively impact their communities all through The Praxis Partnership Approach developed right here in Oklahoma.
Our mission is to partner with dynamic practice owners, utilizing our extensive resources to elevate value and community impact through collaboration. We strive to achieve mutually beneficial outcomes that exceed individual capabilities, guided by principles of honesty, commitment, and hard work.
Our vision for Praxis is to be the premier partner for practice owners to achieve higher standards of success, a sustainable growth vehicle for accomplishing future goals, and a quality of partnership that positively impacts the practice and its community.
At Praxis, we are guided by our core values, which serve as the compass directing our every action. With honesty as our cornerstone, we build trust with our clients, fostering a collaborative environment where ideas flourish and partnerships thrive. Together, we embody the principles of hard work, integrity, and teamwork, driving towards shared success and lasting impact.
