I can only advise that the type of office you describe wanting is the sort of dentistry that I avoid like the plague. If I’m receiving medical care and it feels like your caregiver’s primary motivation is figuring out how to squeeze more money out, it’s time to run away as fast as I can.
I have a cousin who runs a large and successful dentistry practice - he’s done quite well by bundling in more services he can do for clients (e.g. hiring an orthodontist). It still winds up with larger profits but comes from a place of “how can I do more to help patients”?
What sort of dictatorial fantasyland are you living in?
When people earn a bonus, there’s no reason to say thank you. I don’t think I’ve said it to my boss since I was a junior employee and I certainly don’t expect anyone on my team to say it to me.
