In this episode of Earn It, Jennifer interviews Dr. Kristopher Alpers, founder of Alpers Family and Cosmetic Dentistry and Adler PR client, to explore what it takes to build and scale a premier dental practice rooted in innovation, trust, and leadership.

Recognized as one of Arizona’s Best Doctors, Dr. Alpers has built a Scottsdale-based practice that blends cutting-edge technology with a deeply personalized, patient-first approach. From comprehensive 3D imaging and early-detection diagnostics to advanced cosmetic and implant solutions, he is redefining modern dentistry by prioritizing prevention and whole-body health. His philosophy is simple but powerful: patients should feel informed, empowered, and genuinely cared for — not rushed through an appointment.

Jen and Dr. Alpers discuss his journey from collegiate athlete to entrepreneur, the lessons in discipline and resilience that shaped his leadership style, and the realities of acquiring and growing a private practice. He shares how he has scaled his business while maintaining culture, invested heavily in team development, and leveraged emerging technologies, including AI, to elevate both clinical outcomes and the overall patient experience.

The conversation also dives into mentorship, community involvement and why giving back is a core pillar of his business model. From coaching fellow dentists nationwide to his continued service with The Neighborhood Christian Clinic, Dr. Alpers believes true success is measured by impact beyond his own walls. He also shares surprising oral health facts, key business lessons learned along the way, and his perspective on where healthcare and dentistry are headed in the years ahead.
