In this episode of Transition Talk, we explore what, hopefully, is the best part of the transition into ownership....being an Owner! In the "What Happens Next" series, we explore what happens after closing. In this first interview

of the series, Christy sits down to talk with previous NDP client Dr. Derek Williams about his experience transitioning from dental student to owner!

They talk about what went right, how patients and staff reacted, what he would do differently and what he would suggest for a new buyer if he could do it all over again. Listen in and get some tips from an "expert" in ownership!

Dr. Derek Williams is a general dentist in Lufkin, Texas and the co-owner of with Dr. Justin Short of The LIfestyle Practice. Derek and Justin work with other dentists to help them create their own lifestyle practice, focusing on increasing production and collections, creating an engaged team, reducing stress, and setting up systems that will serve as a foundation for years to come. After working together, their clients see, on average, a 33% increase in collections, often including cutting back clinical hours. They offer free consultations.
