Dear Colleague,

Without hesitation I would recommend Ken Rubin Practice Sales.

Because my practice was fairly unique (a prosthodontist placing a large amount of implants), it was a difficult sell. In fact, several other prominent practice brokers had previously tried with no success. I thank Scott and Ken for their persistence in helping to finally get my practice sold.

Sincerely yours,

Daniel R. Patrick, DDS, MSD

I would like to thank you both very much for the way you handled the sale of my Dental practice.

After 40 years of prictice, wishing to retire and attending two different high pressure pitches by other practice brokers, I felt very lost and confused trying to figure out how to make the transition. While attending the program you presented to a full house at the Dental Society meeting room and admiring Ken's informative and easygoing manner, I decided to give you a call.

I was quite pleased by the way you immediately got right on the job with advertising, had dentists interested right away, and had two offers of sale, with one offer being for more than the asking price.

Scott, your constant guidance through the whole process was invaluable. I appreciate the way you kept in phone contact with all parties through the gathering of information and negotiations. You really smoothed the path.

I was concerned about finding the right person to continue care of the patients I had known for so many years, but, I am now very pleased with the new dentist seeing my former patients.

Appreciatively,

James W. Hall , DDS

I had to put on paper my gratitude for the job you did on the sale of my dental practice. .We have had a professional relationship for many years as you have been my accountant. .In that time a trust grew between us and I was delighted that you could list my practice for sale. You exceeded my expectations in every way. .Not only did you find the perfect buyer in record time, but we got a better price than I imagined.

The comment was made that your reputation smoothed the process. .The buyer's broker, attorney and accountant all knew of your reputation and this served to smooth the process on several occasions. .Over the years you have established an enviable reputation as one of the finest dental accountants in the country, your contacts, knowledge and integrity make you unique in the field of practice brokerage. .This field is rife with scoundrels and you stand alone as a straight-shooter. .My family and I thank you for making what could be one of the scariest moments of our lives a smooth and stress-free transition.

Sincerely,

Thomas H. Wiggin, DDS

To whom it may concern,

Over my nineteen year career as a dentist, I have bought three separate practices. I purchased my first practice with the help of a practice broker. The practice that looked good on paper, but it turned out to not be what it appeared to be. It took me several years to recover from the poor advice and sales tactics that I encountered from a broker that did not understand the practice of dentistry, but was more interested in making a sale.

In an effort to stabilize the first practice I bought, I negotiated the purchase of a second practice on my own and merged it into the first. Having had a bad experience with a broker, I handled the purchase on my own but came to realize that my expertise was not suited for practice transitions. It took me nearly seven years to build my practice to be stable. It was almost like starting from scratch.

For the past four years, I have been working with a large well known brokerage firm looking for a practice I could own that would have associates so I could lighten my schedule. I started to speak with Ken Rubin about my goals and within a month, he showed me two separate practices that would fit my needs. Ken was able to focus on my goals and give me precise and valuable information on the practice that I soon purchased. Ken’s knowledge of the practice dynamics and financial stability lead me to the right decision in a short time.

The next dilemma was what to do with my existing office. Ken and his team listed my office for sale and before the advertisements even hit, he had four doctors view my practice. I was able to sell my practice for my full asking price, which was nearly 100% of my prior year’s collections.

The comfort of knowing that Ken and his staff took care of my practice, which I worked hard to build to a quality office, put me at ease through a process that I know can be difficult. I was even able to go on a vacation, which was already planned, and have Ken and his staff manage the deal in my absence. Ken and his team even handled the seller of the practice I was buying, who turned out to be a very difficult person to deal with.

Ken’s expertise in both selling and acquiring my practices gave me a smooth transition on what has been a challenge for most dentists I have talked to. I wish I would have met Ken when I first purchased a practice, but I am pleased that he was able to help me accomplish my goals.
