Steven Albert

Senior Accountant

Dr. Albert graduated from Lehigh University in 2007 and earned his dental degree from UMDNJ (now Rutgers School of Dental Medicine) in 2011. In 2016, he built and opened his first dental practice as a start-up, laying the foundation for his entrepreneurial journey. He expanded his footprint by acquiring his second location in 2020, followed by two more in 2022.

 

Recognizing the challenges and opportunities in dental practice ownership, Dr. Albert began mentoring and partnering with dental entrepreneurs, helping them analyze, negotiate, and acquire 19 different assets in just 18 months. His approach is rooted in integrity, honesty, and a commitment to true partnership.

 

Driven to make Rising Tide a different kind of DSO, Dr. Albert is dedicated to keeping it dentist-led and under dentist control. He is passionate about empowering clinicians and ensuring they maintain autonomy in their practices. As a staunch advocate for partner doctors, he upholds Rising Tide’s core pillars of integrity, gratitude, innovation, and legacy.

 

Above all, Dr. Albert attributes his success to genuinely caring for his partners, fostering a culture of collaboration, and always putting people first.

Private practice was worth building. It's worth keeping.
