You’ve worked hard to get where you are. You’ve put in the long hours, made the sacrifices, and achieved the professional goals you set for yourself. But now you’re faced with a decision that could change everything: should you buy a dental practice?
There’s no easy answer, and there’s a lot at stake. On the one hand, owning your own business can be very gratifying. You’ll have the freedom to set your own hours, build your own clientele, and be your own boss. On the other hand, it’s a lot of work. You’ll be responsible for all the practice’s day-to-day operations, from scheduling appointments to managing finances. And if something goes wrong, you’ll be the one who has to deal with the consequences.
