Why You’ll Love Working Here

Quarryville Family Dentistry is a well-established, privately owned practice led by Dr. Rick Leibold, a dentist with over 36 years of experience and a deep commitment to doing dentistry the right way. This is a relationship-driven, patient-first practice where quality, consistency, and trust matter more than volume. Dr. Leibold is passionate about mentoring the next generation of dentists and is intentionally creating space for an associate to grow into a long-term role within the practice.

The practice is highly organized and efficiently run, supported by an experienced, low-drama team that genuinely enjoys working together. With multiple long-tenured hygienists and expanded-function dental assistants, doctors can focus on dentistry while the team keeps the day running smoothly. Schedules are structured for predictability, strong patient flow, and productive days without chaos.

Mentorship here is hands-on, thoughtful, and collaborative. Dr. Leibold enjoys teaching, consulting on cases, and helping associates refine both their clinical skills and patient communication. The practice is fully digital, equipped with multiple scanners, digital imaging, and modern diagnostic tools, allowing you to practice progressive dentistry while continuing to grow clinically through real-world experience and ongoing CE support.

This is a stable, fee-for-service-leaning practice with strong collections and a loyal patient base built almost entirely through word of mouth. Dr. Leibold plans to continue practicing while gradually stepping back, creating a clear long-term opportunity for an associate who wants to put down roots, grow with the practice, and pursue ownership in the future.

Located in Lancaster County, Quarryville offers a high quality of life with a low cost of living. The area is known for outdoor recreation, farmers' markets, and a close-knit community feel, while remaining within easy driving distance of Lancaster City, Maryland, and Philadelphia. It’s an ideal place to build both a career and a life.

Our Core Values

• Strong Work Ethic – This is a practice of showing up for each other. Team members are willing to stay late when needed and take pride in doing things the right way for patients and teammates alike.
  
  
• Long-Term Commitment – We value associates who want to put down roots and grow with the practice. This is not a stepping-stone role, but an opportunity to build something lasting.
  
  
• Humor & Humanity – A good sense of humor matters here. We believe dentistry should feel human, warm, and enjoyable for patients and the team.
  
  
• Patient-First Mindset – Listening comes before diagnosing. We value doctors who take time to understand patients and build real relationships, not just treatment plans.
  
  
• Coachability & Growth – Confidence paired with humility is essential. We value dentists who are open to mentorship, feedback, and continuous improvement.
  
  

What You’ll Do

• Deliver high-quality general dentistry with an emphasis on crowns, bridges, restorative care, and comprehensive treatment planning.
  
  
• Communicate clearly and compassionately with patients to build trust and long-term relationships.
  
  
• Collaborate closely with a highly trained team of hygienists and expanded-function dental assistants.
  
  
• Participate in hands-on mentorship and shared case planning with Dr. Leibold.
  
  
• Contribute to a positive, team-first culture focused on long-term patient care.
  
  

Compensation & Benefits

• Daily guaranteed rate
  
  
• 30–35% of adjusted production (sliding scale)
  
  
• Annual earnings range of $150,000–$275,000
  
  
• Relocation bonus
  
  
• CE Allowance
  
  
• Medical insurance
  
  
• Dental care for employees and their immediate family.
  
  
• Licensing fees covered
  
  
• Fully digital practice with scanners, digital X-rays, intraoral cameras, and modern sterilization
  
  
• Ownership for the right long-term fit
  
  

Why This Job Stands Out

• True Mentorship Environment: You’ll work directly with an experienced owner dentist who enjoys teaching. Mentorship is hands-on and collaborative, not hands-off or transactional. You’ll never be left to figure things out alone.
  
  
• Exceptional Team Support: This practice is built around teamwork and respect. Experienced assistants and hygienists allow you to focus on dentistry while maintaining efficiency and quality. The culture is supportive, stable, and low-drama.
  
  
• Strong Patient Base & Stability: The practice has a loyal, word-of-mouth patient base and excellent collections. Schedules are full, demand is high, and stability is built into the practice's foundation. You’re stepping into something proven, not uncertain.
  
  
• Advanced, Fully Digital Dentistry: From digital scanners to modern diagnostic tools, the practice invests in technology that improves care and efficiency. You’ll practice dentistry in a progressive environment without corporate pressure. Systems are established and continuously improved.
  
  
• Long-Term Growth & Ownership: This role is designed for long-term growth and ownership. As Dr. Leibold gradually steps back, the right associate will have the opportunity to take on more responsibility and pursue ownership. This is a future-focused opportunity, not a short-term fix.

Who We’re Looking For
Someone who is:

• Committed to working hard and building a long-term future with the practice.
  
  
• Confident clinically while remaining open to mentorship and collaboration.
  
  
• Comfortable performing crown and bridge dentistry and restorative procedures.
  
  
• A strong communicator who listens first and puts patients at ease.
  
  
• A positive team player with a good sense of humor and humility.
