"You really can have the successful practice you desire; enjoy going to work each day, have a patient base that happily refers to you and enjoy worry-free time away from the office." - Mary Fisher-Day "Hiring Mary as my Dental Consultant was the best thing I ever did for my Practice. She helped me reach 5 and 10 year goals in less than 2 years. Her ability to evaluate my Practice, find the problem areas and address those areas with results, in a very short period of time, amazed me. I actually have a life outside the office and the financial freedom I hoped to have 10 years from now." -Dr. James Richardson Before hiring Mary, we had no idea where our overhead stood. We knew something was out of whack but didn't know where to begin to find the problem. Mary evaluated our overhead, pointed out areas that were in line and areas that needed work. With her help we now have systems in place to monitor our overhead and have the knowledge and tools to keep it in line. In addition, we have fine-tuned our business office and have collections consistently at 98% or above. Our recall percentage is well above the norm and our Hygiene department is more efficient and productive than we ever thought it could be. It's nice to have a competent, dependable Consultant who listens and will tailor Management for the individual needs of the practice." -Doctors Doug and Cathy Smith

Book Description
Any professional practice transition activity--whether buying, selling, or associating--is one of the most important events that will happen in your professional career. Making a mistake in the process can have long-lasting effects on any or all of the parties to a transition. Dental Practice Transitions Handbook will provide you with the answers to basic questions when considering any transition. It is not intended to replace the experts, brokers, consultants, attorneys, accountants, and financial advisors that should be consulted as you proceed through a transition, but it should give you an understanding of the process, what to expect, and a starting point from which to begin your journey. About the Author H. M. Smith has earned a masters in business administration and is founder of Professional Transitions, a dental practice transitions consulting firm. He has been involved in dentistry for over thirty-five years and is currently the director of Transition Strategies at the Pride Institute.

Gerardo Santiago, DDS "Buying or selling a practice is full of pitfalls. Trying to do so without the help of a consummate professional like Hy Smith is a folly. My own experience couldn't have been better, thanks to his firm. I would urge any professional to read this book and consult with Hy Smith before taking action." Ron Gillenwaters, DDS
