Dentist / Medical expert

Siraj Asadi

Siraj anchors the clinical side of Nuvana. His role is to define what excellent dentistry should feel like for patients, guide the clinical philosophy, lead care standards, and keep the model grounded in clinician-led judgment.

Operating roles

Roles before final structure.

The exact legal and ownership structure should be counsel-led. This page focuses on who contributes what to make the model credible.

Dentistry, license, clinical trust

Clinical Founder

  • Clinical strategy and protocols
  • Patient care and clinical hiring

  • Reputation and care quality

Business systems, growth, platform

Operating / Technology Founder

  • Strategy, operations, and growth
  • Technology, analytics, automation

Structure note

Florida generally requires licensed dentists to own the clinical practice entity. A clean path explores a dentist-owned professional entity plus a permitted management / technology / infrastructure company, with Nuvana Healthworks IP licensed separately and counsel-reviewed.

Platform note

Mako Core should remain the underlying AI/business technology. Nuvana Healthworks should package healthcare-specific infrastructure for practices. Nuvana Dental remains clinician-led, and The Sanctuary is the referral/community ecosystem around trusted providers.
