MEET RICK SIMCOCK, D.D.S.
Wanting balance between my work and personal life was at the heart of my practice transformation
RICK’S STORY
CAN YOU RELATE?
After being in private practice for 20 years, I had become a very efficient endodontist. But something was missing. While completing 9-10 cases a day, I started looking for an exit strategy. My practice felt like it was in a rut and I wanted to find a way to reignite my passion.
At a national meeting of endodontists, I heard about the GentleWave System from Sonendo and saw some of the case reports and firsthand reports of those that were using the system. I was intrigued. I bought two units for my 2 practices, got trained, and then found that all of our systems, strategies, and efficiency protocols were outdated.
I decided to embrace this new technology and focused on developing a highly-efficient approach to scheduling and treating patients. I was excited again to start doing root canals and fell back in love with my practice. After 6 months, my life changed. I looked forward to coming into work and approaching my patients with a new attitude. I thoroughly enjoy the new technology and believe there has never been a better time to be an endodontist. Our field is moving from minimal instrumentation endodontics towards non-instrumentation endodontics, join me to learn why. I’ll show you how to incorporate my techniques into your clinical protocols.

A ONE-MINUTE HISTORY OF MY LIFE
“I was raised in Walla Walla, Washington and attended Loma Linda University in Southern California in 1997. Upon graduation, I was accepted into a two year residency program in Endodontics at Albert Einstein Medical Center in Philadelphia, PA. In August of 1999, I opened a new practice in Skagit County. In 2017, I opened a second endodontic practice in Bellingham, WA. called North Sound Root Canal Specialists.
I have two wonderful adult children, Ethan and Lindsey and am married to Hannah. We live in Bellingham overlooking the beautiful Bellingham Bay with two dogs, Eloise, a French Bulldog, and Darby, a Golden Doodle. We enjoy many activities that are readily available in the Pacific Northwest, including snowboarding, skiing, hiking, and enjoying our friends. My personal interests include music, running, reading, personal growth, and traveling.”
