Where do you want to be?

Sellers:

Is it time to sell? How much preparation do I need? How do I determine the value of my practice? These are all great questions that most owners have as they are considering retirement, even if it's many years away. It's never too soon to start planning! We at DPP will assist you with all the answers, plus many things you've probably never thought of. We carefully manage every detail of your sale and of your pre-sale planning.

Future Employee Dentists:

We will talk with you to determine what your goals are, and we will have you complete a data form. We will then present practice opportunities that can meet your goals.

Dental Practices in the Middle States of the US needing to hire a dentist:

We will talk with you at length to determine what your practice truly needs; we will then request a full data form, the last three years' practice tax returns, and other items for a new dentist to know about your practice, sometimes including interviews with teams.

Buyers:

We can assess your needs and assist you from start to finish with the purchase of one of our practice opportunities, or we can assist you as buyer's representation to assure that an opportunity you are considering is actually the right one for you! We also have several associate opportunities leading to ownership.

  • Win-Win!
    The thing I appreciate most is how the personal expertise of your company allowed this transition to flow as smoothly as possible between the seller and myself. I have heard horror stories from my friends on how badly things can end up between seller and buyer. You allowed both parties to gain even more respect and appreciation for one another. That is something I will always be thankful for!

  • This is my third time working with Kathy, and I can tell you I would not want to do it without her. The first time working with Kathy, she was able to find us a great match for an associate. Three years later she helped us make him our partner. A year ago my husband, who was the senior partner in our practice, passed away and I knew Kathy was who I needed to call. Because I had worked with her before, I knew she was someone I could trust. She understands the business inside and out. Kathy is honest and professional and will look out for the best interest of all parties involved. The dentists and I were all very pleased and thankful for Kathy and the way she walked us through every step. Call Kathy today, you will be glad you did.

  • I am thrilled to recommend Kathy Johnson and Dental Practice Professionals. As the managing member of our multi-location and multi-doctor group practice, I've had the pleasure of knowing and working with Kathy for a number of years. Initially our relationship began while Kathy was overseeing the transition of dental practices from selling to buying doctors. I'm pleased to count myself as one of the numerous success stores that Kathy has helped foster, as I have purchased multiple dental practices while working with Kathy.

  • I had the pleasure of meeting Kathy through our residency program. A Faculty Specialist Dentist highly recommended her. Kathy was so enjoyable and knowledgeable to be around and took her time meeting needs and far exceeding expectations! I am so grateful for the job opportunity she arranged for me and couldn't have gotten to this point without Kathy's help!

  • When I met Kathy, I was going through a difficult transition in my career, and she took the time to really get to know me as not only a doctor, but as a person. She helps take what would normally be a stressful process of placement and makes it seem so easy/seamless so I didn't have to worry or stress. I trust her fully.. She goes up to bat for me, and doesn't settle until she finds the perfect match for myself and all involved! I am so grateful for her services and friendship!
