The Best Dental Practice To Buy
Description
📋 Free Download: Practice Evaluation Checklist https://practiceown.com/pdf
What type of dental practice should you actually buy? In this video, I break down exactly what makes a practice worth buying. The short answer: buy a practice with a lot of active patients where the seller's revenue per patient is as low as possible. That's where your growth opportunity is.
What we cover:
- Why two practices with identical financials can be completely different
- How to calculate active recall patients (not the broker's inflated number)
- Revenue per patient: the most important number
- How conservative sellers create massive growth opportunities
- The ideal number of hygienists, operatories, and patients
- Why high revenue per patient can be a red flag
- Associate vs. owner income comparison
- Why you can't trust broker documents at face value
💼 Work with me: I help dentists evaluate dental practices before they buy. Every practice I evaluate gets compared against my database of 500+ evaluations.
