“Tony’s communication skills were strong. His organization was extremely helpful in appraisal preparation, letter of intent, and final purchase agreement processes. He was available to show the practice’s office facilities at all times needed by interested parties.
“Despite the instability of the COVID-19 pandemic, Tony was able to move us from initiation to a closed sale within a rapid period of time.
“Tony is even-tempered and diplomatic in his transactions with interested parties.
“I would recommend using Tony and ddsmatch without reservations.”

“I recently sold my practice of 30 years via ddsmatch and Tony Counts. This is not only a major business undertaking, as well as an emotional decision. Tony assisted me in every step of the way. He truly did find a DDS match for my patients and staff. The final details of the sale can be quite overwhelming, he handled it all with ease. I was impressed with all services and would easily pick up the phone and call Tony again. Thanks for making a hard decision and process easy.” — Susan Carter O’Shea, DDS
“I used Tony to help me find an associate dentist for my private practice. At the time . . . I was also using two other companies . . . Tony found me an associate within a very short time of working together. I believe it was within one to two months. I had been working with the other two companies for at least a year.
“Tony has very good knowledge of the dental profession and seems to be well connected to organizations that can help him create leads to find quality candidates that meet your specific needs. He is extremely motivated to help and does whatever he can to make the transition as smooth as possible.
I currently just finished my first full year with the associate that he found for me and it is going very well. Tony has followed up with me from time to time to make sure things were still going well and I think that is another attribute that sets him apart from the rest. He didn’t just leave after he was paid for his services. He made an honest effort to follow-up during that first year to make sure I was happy and that things were heading in the right direction, I have no reservations recommending Tony to help with any practice transition needs.”

“I had experienced an unsuccessful associate/partnership transition a few years ago. Because of my past bad experience, I wasn’t looking forward to starting the process of selling my practice. I expected it to be a long, arduous process. It was our good fortune to have been referred to Tony Counts . . . I knew Tony was well known and respected in the dental community . . . Within days he had a prospective dentist who was interested in my practice. Our first contact was the first of April and we closed on July 1. Tony made the whole process smooth and stress free. We communicated almost daily. Tony took care of all the details of which there were many. I would highly recommend Tony and ddsmatch to anybody who is looking for a smooth and successful transition to retirement.”
— Kirby Hatcher, DDS
“I worked with Tony in the acquisition of my practice. He represented the selling doctor and I had my own transition team. Tony was very pleasant to work with. Even though he did not represent me, he was very fair and even stood up for me when some challenges arose with third parties involved in the process. Purchasing a practice is the biggest investment a dentist makes in his or her career, it is vital that the broker you work with is honest and has integrity. Tony is that person you can trust.”
— Bo Zhang, DDS
“Buying and selling a dental practice can be a great experience or a very frustrating one. There are so many variables that can influence the final outcome. The choice of a broker can make all the difference in the world.
“When I decided to purchase my first dental practice, I chose to work with one of the big-name brokerages . . . The broker I worked with insisted that he would take care of everything and that I had nothing to worry about. Throughout the process I felt pressured and rushed. In the end, I did purchase the practice but felt I got a bad deal and that the broker was more interested in making money than helping me and my family with such a huge decision in our life.
“[When it came time to sell my practice] I spoke with Tony and told him all about my previous experience . . . He was very attentive and understanding. He told me what the process would be like and assured me he would do all he could to make it a better experience for me. Throughout the entire process he kept me informed and up to date on everything . . . Tony was great to work with. I felt much more comfortable working with him than I ever did with my other broker. I never felt pressured or rushed into doing anything. Tony is a true professional and I would recommend his services to anyone.”

“The entire team at ddsmatch made my practice buying a success. They handled all of the negotiations and were excellent in keeping me informed. It was a comfort knowing I could trust them to handle all of the many facets of buying my practice. Andy truly went the extra mile monitoring the progress of my loan, and he helped me with all my endless questions. He worked long hours and navigated many obstacles to bring the deal to a close. The staff was absolutely marvelous and made me feel welcome to call them anytime. Even though I have never met his team in person, I felt like a friend and that they too were working hard to close the deal by answering my questions and providing the necessary tools and encouragement. Finding and buying the right practice is a very big and hard decision to make, but Andy made sure to make it as simple as he could and recommended great advisors that helped throughout my transition to practice ownership. I would highly recommend Andy from ddsmatch to anyone looking to buy or sell a practice.”
