Selling to a DSO, Associate, Partner, or Another Doctor?
Sell Your Dental Practice to Another Doctor
When it comes to transferring your practice to another dentist, there are some key factors to consider in order to ensure a smooth transition. To facilitate the doctor-to-doctor transition, we:
1. Evaluate Cultural Compatibility: Ensure the incoming dentist aligns with the practice’s philosophy and patient approach.
2. Assess Clinical Skillset: Confirm the new doctor’s competencies match the services
the practice offers.
3. Facilitate Patient Communication: Implement a plan to keep patients informed and reassured.
4. Coordinate Buyer Financing: Connect the buyer with dental specific lenders to ensure you receive 100% of the proceeds at closing.
5. Coordinate Due Diligence: Walk the buyer through due diligence so you can focus on running your practice up until closing.
6. Plan Post-Sale Involvement: Decide if the outgoing dentist will have any role post-sale.
7. Discuss Practice Growth Vision: Align on future growth and development plans. Our commitment is to ensure a transition that respects both the dedication you’ve given and the promise of the future.
Sell to an Associate or Partner
The transition market is changing rapidly, and most people are exploring DSO sales purely for financial reasons. If you would prefer to sell your practice to another dentist but are worried you would leave too much money on the table, this could be the perfect option.
This option allows you to maximize your transition value while providing the smoothest transition for your staff and patients.
Through this process we:
1. Find candidates who want to buy a practice but associate for you first for 12 months.
2. Determine the value for your practice to sell to your associate.
3. Once you ensure the candidate is the right fit, they buy-in for a percentage of the practice.
4. Maintain complete control instead of working for a DSO.
5. Gradually transition and patients and staff to the new owner. This option is perfect for owners of larger practices that do not like the idea of selling to a corporate buyer.
Sell Your Dental Practice to a DSO
DSOs frequently approach practice owners because they’ve negotiated hundreds of deals and often know the market better than the sellers. Without representation, sellers often accept lower sale prices than if they used a broker.
Key Considerations When Selling to a DSO:
Create Competition: Selling a practice is like selling a home—more buyers create leverage.
Control the Price: Know your EBITDA before sharing financials with buyers.
Understand Their Capital: Learn how the buyer is financing the deal and where they are in their funding cycle.
Support vs. Control: Ensure their management approach aligns with your expectations.
Equity Terms: Clarify where your equity is held and whether there are distributions.
Post-Sale Commitments: Align your desired work timeline with the buyer’s requirements.
If you’re selling to a DSO purely for a higher payout, let’s talk about how you can achieve similar financial results by selling to another dentist.
SATISFIED CLIENTS FEEDBACK
Everything was pretty smooth. The only thing that could have been done better would have been to subtract personal expenses prior to the valuation. I didn’t realize just how much of my credit card expenses were not business-related, and I think I’m pretty conservative about those things. It affects the valuation and we had to try and negotiate after the fact.
