This month's column is the first in a series revisiting past Readers' Corner topics to examine changes in the profession over the intervening years; in this case, the same questions on fees and retention appeared in the April and July 2004 issues, respectively.)

JCO INTERVIEWS
Mr. Joseph Hogan on Align Technology
Volume 51 : Number 2 : Page 0 : Feb 2017
DR. KEIM To start off, Joe, is there anything you would particularly like to bring to the attention of JCO readers? MR. HOGAN I'd just like them to understand our position regarding the support that we have for orthodontists, and how we believe in the community. I believe there has been a lot of controversy in the past in the sense of our support of GPs vs. our support of orthodontists. I don't want your readers to have any kind of concern regarding how we view the orthodontic community. Our commitment to it is really important. Secondly, they're probably uncomfortable with me. They knew the former CEO of Align Technology, Tom Prescott, for several years. I think without being exposed to someone for very long, you fill your own vacuum in a sense of who this guy is, and I want them to be comfortable with me. I carry on Tom's legacy, and I see the company in a lot of the ways that Tom did.
