  • Great Podcast

    I originally met Perrin on a bicycle ride. And have been hearing from him ever since. Always a wealth of knowledge on dental business. Nowadays there seems to be a ton of dental podcasts, all talking about the same thing. Group Practice Accelerator Podcast stands out. Their content is fresh and applicable. And yes the brew on that Keurig is awful. Nespresso is better.

Q: What should owners do now to position their practice for a premium sale given the changing rates?
Owners should focus on building a durable leadership team, outline clear partnerships, and ensure the business can operate without the principal doctor if needed. They should also mature their four-wall improvements, strengthen cross-location synergies, and time a sale to align with market readiness, keeping in mind that buyers value predictability, growth potential, and stable governance.

Frequently Asked Questions About Group Practice Accelerator

What is Group Practice Accelerator about and what kind of topics does it cover?

This show targets founders and leaders of multi-location healthcare practices, especially dentistry and related group models. Episodes routinely explore growth strategies, governance, physician development, and exit planning, often framing value creation around structured operations, equity partnerships, and scalable systems. Listeners likely want practical frameworks to scale responsibly, improve doctor performance, and navigate mergers, acquisitions, or partnerships while preserving care quality. A standout theme is turning clinical leadership into business leverage—through mentorship, standardization, and governance—and using exit planning as a growth driver rather than a one-time event.
