Welcome to Professional Transition Strategies

The business of practice transition is not as simple as some doctors and dentists who have not gone through it might believe. If not done correctly, it can be a costly experience that can jeopardize friendships, patients, finances and plans for retirement.

For the Seller:

It has been estimated that less than one third of all dentists will ever sell their practice for its full fair market value. Many will put it off for so long and never sell. Many sell too late, and receive much too little for a lifetime of service. A primary cause is the failure of the dentists to properly manage the transition of their practice.

For the Buyer:

Practice buyers need an accurate practice appraisals and analysis to make sure the practice right and economically sound for their needs. It is also important to have a plan in place that will address the needs of the staff and patients of the practice.

Our goal is to help build and transition successful dental practices. For our transition clients we work with buyers and sellers to create an atmosphere of trust for smooth and timely practice transitions. For new and currently practicing dentists, we will assist in creating a strategy for growth. We draw on 65 years of experience in the profession to build and transition all types of dental practices with great success.

Having been on both sides of this equation, we can assist you with questions and concerns that you may not even know exist.
