22. How to avoid paying too much for your first healthcare practice

With Tom Whalen, CPA

In 10 years, the field of dentistry is going to look very different than it does today. Baby boomers who have owned their practices for decades are starting to consider retirement. And younger dentists who have practiced as associates will soon have an opportunity to become practice owners themselves. As those aspiring practice owners assess the value of a practice they want to buy, it’s essential they get good advice and expert counsel.

In this episode, we're talking to Tom Whalen, CPA at Edge Advisors, who has helped dozens of young doctors buy their first practice and empowered dozens more established doctors to run their practices more efficiently.
