About MAX
We’re not the typical support platform. Home to the masters and mavericks of oral and maxillofacial surgery, we’re not here to strip away your identity or bury you in corporate nonsense. When we partner together, you remain the driving force of your practice. Our goal is to empower the same passion, same fire, and same autonomy you built your practice with, but with elevated levels of patient care and prosperity. At MAX, we don’t want you to blend in, because you’ve spent your entire career standing out.
LETTER FROM THE FOUNDER
Dr. Jason M. Auerbach
I founded my own practice with one goal….to cultivate what I considered to be the optimal patient experience. My vision became a reality, and in the intervening years, as the specialty of oral and maxillofacial surgery and my definition of the optimal experience evolved, Riverside Oral Surgery grew to a fourteen-surgeon practice with ten locations serving patients across New Jersey. In the last few years, so much has changed for all of us, and despite the growth we experienced, the cost of doing business grew and became increasingly challenging at the same time.
When I started my practice and for the vast majority of the last 20 years, I never considered partnering with another entity. My partners and I built our team and financed our business the old-fashioned way, by forming relationships with local banks, putting up collateral, and personally guaranteeing every acquisition and build out we did. But like I said…things changed. Competing for quality partnerships and amazing talent became more competitive and everything, including debt, became more expensive, Given my commitment to never sell to a general practice or even multi-specialty-focused DSO, it became evident that the best way to continue to build and practice on my terms was to find the right financial partners who could understand and support an OMS platform as committed to the experience unique to our specialty as I have always been. MAX Surgical Specialty Management was created, and I could not be prouder.
Immediately, we formed a Clinical Advisory Board (CAB) with a strong charter that encourages surgeons to be largely autonomous and independent from the corporate management team that is in place to support and enhance our collective ability to provide outstanding outcomes for our patients. Our CAB oversees all things related to delivery-of-care, identifies and communicates best-practices, embraces the optimal patient experience, and differentiates MAX from every other platform out there.
Our amazing management team supports our vision, which will ensure that the business people can focus on the business, and we, the surgeons, can focus on what matters most – patient care.
We are growing the preeminent surgeon-led, full-scope oral and maxillofacial surgical specialty platform in the Eastern U.S. and are dedicated to building the region’s first OMS-only specialty platform where a premium is placed on surgeon autonomy, independent practice identity, and clinical excellence.

The MAX
Difference.
We are a different kind of support platform. Built by surgeons for surgeons, designed to protect, grow, and elevate what today’s top surgeons value most: autonomy, innovation, and legacy.
Surgeon-Led
Home to the leaders and trailblazers of oral and maxillofacial surgery, our surgeons are atop the industry, and they will always be the leaders of our team and mission.
Elite Surgeons
We’ve worked hard to curate the ultimate collection of surgical talent, where everyone has the ability to connect to members of the network.
Power in
Proximity
By keeping our network of surgical practices close to home, we stay grounded in what really matters -- the communities we serve. Faster support, stronger collaboration, and a connection that runs deep.
Operational Excellence
We deliver everything you’d expect and want from a back office ally—operational support, growth, peace of mind, technology, and prosperity—but without the strings that choke out your individuality, autonomy, and passion.
Our Proud Partners
From One Surgeon to Another—Let’s Talk
We built MAX because we were done letting outsiders define how we practice. If you're looking for real support from people who’ve actually been in your shoes, you’re in the right place.
