What Our Clients Are Saying

Dr. Janette Williams

Adam Goldsmith has been awesome to work with during my practice transition. He was very mindful of what I had set as transition goals for myself, my patients and my team and created a solid marketing plan to address those needs. He was very responsive to any questions and could be easily reached. His attention to detail when reviewing contracts was much appreciated and this saved me a tremendous amount of time and money during the transition process. I would recommend Adam and PMA to any professional colleague who is looking to buy or sell a practice.

Dr. Steven Erbeck

Since starting my group practice with multiple locations, I’ve acquired several other offices and worked with many brokers. I can confidently say that Adam Goldsmith is in a class of his own. He was highly effective in communicating my questions and concerns to the seller throughout the entire process. His creativity played a key role in bringing the seller and I together to reach an outcome we were both happy with. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the tri-state area with practice transition needs—and I certainly plan to continue working with him as my group practice grows.

Dr. Mark DeGenova

Matt, I am writing to convey my deepest gratitude for your exceptional dedication and professionalism throughout the process of the sale of my practice. Your steadfast persistence and commitment ensured that we found the ideal fit for the patients, staff, and myself. Thank you once again for your diligent efforts and unwavering support.

Dr. Mario Gagliardi

Working with Matt was an outstanding experience. His professionalism, persistence, and exceptional networking skills made the entire process seamless and successful. Matt’s dedication ensured every detail was handled with care, leading to a successful sale.

Dr. Jagan Sharma

I had the pleasure of working with Matt Scherer at PMA Practice Transitions, and he truly exceeded my expectations as a dental practice broker. From the start, Matt took a highly personalized approach, taking the time to understand my needs and goals. His attention to detail and deep industry knowledge gave me the confidence that I was in good hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and highly recommend Matt to anyone seeking guidance in dental practice transitions.

Dr. Jeffrey Evanko

Matt Scherer at PMA Dental Practice Transitions exceeded my expectations as a dental practice broker. His expertise and attention to detail made the process of selling my practice straightforward and efficient. Matt's personalized approach and commitment to my success were evident throughout our partnership. I couldn't have asked for a better advocate in this journey, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to transition their dental practice!

Dr. Gary Montgomery

When it became time to sell my practice and retire, I talked to three dental transition specialists. I chose Matt Scherer from PMA Practice Transitions in part because he had recently sold practices for 2 dentists that I know, but mostly because Matt treated me like a person. Matt wanted to meet with me and visit my practice BEFORE having me fill out the paperwork & giving him his initial payment. Throughout the process, Matt provided meaningful advice and kept me well informed. If I had to do it over, I would certainly choose Matt again to help me sell my practice.

Dr. Hiral Patel

I worked with Matt while purchasing my first dental practice. He is fantastic. He is honest, transparent, and efficient. He made finishing the deal very easy. He is very easy to get a hold if you ever need anything. Even after the closing of the deal, Matt let me know he is a phone call away if I need anything. He has kept true to his words. I would recommended Matt and his team at PMA to anyone looking to buy/sell.

Dr. Omar Saleh

I can't thank Matt enough for his exceptional service as the seller's agent. Throughout the entire process, he not only represented the seller's interests but also went above and beyond to address any questions or concerns I had. His professionalism and dedication truly set him apart in his field, making this experience seamless and stress-free.

Dr. Steven W. Keller

PMA were so professional and detail oriented in helping me find the right buyer for my dental practice. They helped me through every step and made the transition seamless. Adam Goldsmith was readily available to answer all of my questions and was very supportive throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend their services!

Dr. Parag Kirpekar

Thank you Matt for all your help in the sale of my practice. Your professionalism, advice and guidance made the whole process very easy and stress free.
I highly recommend Matt and his PMA team to help in the sale of your Dental practice.

Dr. Haitham Wehbe

I first met Mr Matt Scherer as a buyer looking for a practice. I was impressed with his integrity. After the sale he continued to check in on me and many times provided me with professional references over the years that helped make ownership a little easier and helped build the practice. Years later when it came time to sell, I contacted him again. He is professional, honest and always kept my best interest in mind. He knows the business inside and out and is always available to answer any questions or concerns. I am grateful to have met Mr Scherer and to have worked with PMA Transitions.

Dr. Richard Chanin

I would highly recommend PMA Practice Transitions for the sale of your practice. They were one of the few companies that actually came to office to inspect it personally. On that first visit both Matt, the owner, and Adam, the representative that worked closely with me, were both present. Adam aided me and answered all my questions. He was constantly in contact with me which made me feel much better.

I am very happy that I worked with this company!

Dr. Vladimir Belikov

Easy and smooth transition!!!

Thank you, Matt!

Client – PMA Partnership

Every Practice Deserves A Personal Touch

We don’t just collect your relevant information and list your practice. At PMA we advocate and represent you and your entire brand. We want to understand the totality of your practice from your patient list to insurance credentialing and from vendor contracts to community causes. We believe there is equity in every nuance of your business.

  • Conduct a thorough listing meeting, evaluating key practice attributes.
  • Uncover unique selling points and potential practice advantages.
  • Establish a timeline, framework, process and strategic selling roadmap.
  • Review & execute listing agreement.

OUR VALUE. YOUR WORTH

A Partnership That Builds Worth

At PMA, our focus on efficacy, efficiency, and expertise ensures that we add substantial value, empowering you to sell your practice with confidence and maximize its worth. Our consultants pride themselves in their knowledge, while anticipating obstacles and removing roadblocks. Based on key benchmarks, we know what lenders will finance, what attorneys will accept, and what buyers will buy. Here’s how we get there.

  • Due diligence discovery to appraise the practice and produce an offering package.
  • Educate seller transparently on practice value, by reviewing appraised value and offer packet.
  • Once the seller approves the value and offer package, the transaction can move forward with confidence.
  • This step signifies alignment between the seller’s expectations and the terms of the offer, laying a solid foundation for the rest of the transition process.

PERFORMANCE ADVISORY

As part of our practice performance advocacy, a PMA consultant coordinates every practice showing. These showings are critical in displaying an ideal representation to prospective buyers and are supported by our collective expertise. Seller-owners offer answers to the buyers’ clinical or practice management questions.

  • Coach and counsel our clients through support to help them navigate potential challenges.
  • Coupling the intangible attributes such as practice philosophy, patient loyalty, and team dynamics with hard data like production by procedure, P&Ls and payroll reports.
  • Illustrate to buyers the nuances of each practice, whether it’s an established office with proven cash flow or lower-performing practice with upside potential.

SIMPLIFIED TRANSITIONS

At PMA we know selling and buying a dental practice can be stressful, so we simplify. Once an offer is accepted and financing secured, we facilitate a pre-contract meeting where we sit down with both the buyer and the seller, assisting in alleviating any points of contention or clarifying ambiguities. The PMA pre-contract meeting acts as a living document that builds consensus, creates optimization, and minimizes potential downstream disputes. We are resolute on a fixed purpose – a smooth close to a complex transition.

  • Facilitate and initiate pre-contract discussions before the close.
  • Reduce focus on deal-making and emphasize mutualism and respect.
  • Create greater optimization in legal and financial service sectors; decrease unexpected interferences and inaccuracies.
  • Ensure parties are aligned, set closing date, execute attorney prepared contracts.
