30: Ready to expand? How to grow your veterinary hospital into multiple locations, with Mike Robinson, VMD
Building relationships with patients can be one of the most rewarding parts of owning a healthcare practice.

29: Define your practice roadmap and reach the destination you envision, with Dr. Richard Low
Growing a healthcare practice is a journey.
If you want to be successful, it helps to start with a destination in mind.
Thankfully, other providers have been down these roads and have learned from the decisions that ultimately led them to where they wanted to be.

28: Practice, profits, and purpose: The 3 Ps of practice ownership, with Stephen Trutter
When starting a healthcare practice, it's easy to get caught up in the details – the who, what, where, and when of opening your practice, so to speak..
But have you stopped to think about the "why"?

27: Get top dollar for your practice when it's time to sell, with Thad Miller
For many practice owners, their business is their life's work – a true personal and professional investment.
So when the time comes to sell, it's crucial for owners to maximize the return on their investments – we’re talking decades of procedures, critical business decisions, and long days.
What many sellers don't realize is that the decisions they make in their final months as owners can have an enormous impact on the value they realize from the sale.

26: A buyer’s and seller’s guide to navigating practice transition day
Buying or selling a healthcare practice is usually one of the biggest financial decisions of a doctor’s life.
It can be accompanied by stress, uncertainty, and even conflict.
Since it's something most people do only once (maybe twice), the laws and best practices that govern practice transition can be unfamiliar or confusing.

24. What to know before you own a healthcare practice
The rise of corporate dentistry and the growth of Dental Support Organizations (DSOs) is top of mind for many aspiring practice owners.
The prospect of competing with these big players can be enough to keep some providers from taking that critical leap into ownership.
It's not that DSOs provide better care and service to their patients – it's that many have more advanced systems and infrastructure in place.

23. How to negotiate your commercial real estate lease like a pro
When it comes to legally binding documents, there are no do-overs. What you sign is what you get – sometimes for the next 10, 15, or even 20 years!
When it comes to negotiating a commercial real estate lease for your new or expanding practice, you’ll want to make sure your i's are dotted and your t's are crossed long before you start negotiating with a landlord.

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

21. How to brand and promote your healthcare practice to reflect your vision
When you're launching a new healthcare practice, it's easy to get lost in the work – building a space, hiring employees, and starting to treat patients. But there's an important step that many aspiring practice owners might forget in their rush to get to work: defining a vision, honing a mission statement, and unifying it all under a strong brand. Without these guiding principles, your practice may struggle to find a direction, attract patients, and ultimately succeed.
