Why should you think about a practice valuation now?  Most doctors know that if a practice transition is imminent, for example a sale, or if a partner or associate is about to join the practice, then a valuation is necessary.  But not everyone realizes that a valuation is also recommended for practices undertaking a business plan or identifying the appropriate amount of insurance or for prudent financial planning. By the way, valuation updates are generally simple and the fees are reasonable.

You want a well thought out approach and highly qualified valuation firm to perform your valuation — We've found one for you.   As in any profession, not all valuation providers deliver the same level of service.  Many use a shallow "rote" methodology which is not flexible enough to recognize unique aspects in many practices and may not apply to specialty practices.  Using this approach, you would risk having your practice undervalued or overvalued.

Berning & Affiliates has carefully reviewed established practice valuation firms and has selected affiliated firms, specifically for dental practice valuations. These firms apply the ADA publication Valuing a Practice guidelines and AAO Guidelines on Valuation utilizing the capitalized earnings method. This is the method that has stood the test of time for service based businesses and you can get the benefit of applying it to your practice. We call the application the DDS Value Point™ practice valuation service.
