founded Next Step Dental Consulting. With a career spanning since 1990 in dental transitioning, financing, and accounting, Kathy has worked with over 1,500 +/- dental practices. My experience includes startups, projects, relocations, and practice acquisitions. Having worked with four dental-specific lenders, I have gained invaluable insights into building, buying, lending, and operating successful dental practices.
Next Step Dental Consulting offers a comprehensive range of services, including acting as a buyer’s advocate to complete your due diligence on practice opportunities and guiding clients through constructing a dental practice. This includes team assembly, timeline, business plan development, lender comparison, construction, budget oversight, and assisting with practice operations including insurance selection through bookkeeping.
As a dental speaker, I will share my expertise on building and running successful dental offices, providing invaluable insights and practical advice.
