Business Owner
Dr. Dickerson graduated from the UOP School of Dentistry in 1976 and completed a year long hospital residency program at Valley Medical center in Fresno, CA upon graduation. Disenchanted with dentistry, he sought to find a «better way» after 10 years of practice. His subsequent success and enjoyment of his «new found» profession catapulted him into a highly sought after lecture career in 1989. Bill started sharing his passion with other dentists and quickly became recognized as a respected opinion leader and highly sought after speaker as well as one of the most influential people in dentistry.
