If you're the one doing all the production, your practice may not be worth much the day you decide to leave.
Dr. Bob Margeas started fixing that years before he was ready to slow down. He stepped back and handed his patients to the associates who would one day buy in.
On this week's The Special Lists, we're joined by ๐๐ซ. ๐๐จ๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐๐ฌ, owner of Iowa Dental Group and editor in chief of Inside Dentistry. He breaks down why he turned down 10 DSO offers, sold 20% to his associate instead, and merged with other practices to give himself a backup buyer for his exit.
He also tells the story of the mentor who sold him a practice at a discount, pushed him to start lecturing, and made him start investing at 30 โ because it's about time in the market, not timing the market.
