About me

My name is Dr. Chris Salierno and I’m a dentist.

I started as an associate (employee) and then started my own scratch practice with a business partner. I also followed my passions outside of patient care, building a successful career as a writer, lecturer, consultant, Chief Editor of a trade publication, Key Opinion Leader, and even appearing on TV a few times.

I’ve transitioned from full-time dentist, to part-time,to now having no regular patient care duties. I currently serve as Chief Dental Officer at Tend, a multi-site dental organization.

About Leaving Healthcare

This is my newsletter about the growing number of healthcare providers who choose to make a living doing something outside of traditional patient care.

I’ll share my research and observations on:

  • Workforce data trends - inflows, outflows, turnover, and shortages

  • Why providers quit and how they might learn to love their jobs again

I’ll also offer guidance to providers who are looking to leave full-time patient care for their next great adventure. We can leverage our healthcare education and experience to earn income, including:

  • Writing

  • Professional lecturing

  • Consulting and Key Opinion Leadership

  • Administrative and management roles

  • Media
