Dental Practice Acquisitions

Are you considering buying a dental practice?

  • How do you confidently purchase knowing you are buying the “right” practice for you and paying the right amount BEFORE you embark on a Dental Practice Acquisition?
  • How do you know if the timing is right for you or for the market you are in?
  • Do you know what financial paperwork and records you should be evaluating to see if the practice has been running smoothly?
  • How do you get the current owner to “turn over” the correct financial paperwork and balance sheets that reveal the true workings of the practice?
  • Does the practice have a three-year history of growth or decline?
  • What do you say to the seller if something just doesn’t “look” right?
  • How will you know when you have done enough “Due Diligence”?
