Dentist Exit Advisors and Value Acceleration
Protect Your Practice, Secure Your Legacy
You've dedicated decades to building a thriving dental practice that supports your family and community. But what happens when the unexpected strikes—a debilitating injury, sudden illness, or worse? Without proper planning, your life's work could become undervalued, leaving your loved ones scrambling amid financial devastation.​
Become a Strategic Business Owner: The Foundation of True Exit Planning
Elevate from Clinician to CEO: Strategic Ownership Powers Your Exit
Dentistry is a noble profession, but running a practice often feels like juggling drills, charts, and endless admin. What if you approached it like a Fortune 500 CEO: strategic, visionary, and value-focused? That's the essence of being a Strategic Business Owner, and it's the secret to a rewarding exit.
At Dentist Exit Advisors, we coach dentists to shift from reactive operators to proactive leaders.
​
Exit planning isn't a last-minute checklist; it's the natural outcome of strategic decisions made now.
The Strategic Owner Mindset
Strategic owners view their practice as an investment portfolio: a collection of assets (patients, team, IP) to grow and protect. This mindset yields:
-
Proactive Growth: Spot opportunities like partnerships or niche expansions early.
-
Risk Mastery: Build buffers against economic dips or regulatory changes.
-
Legacy Alignment: Ensure your exit matches your life goals—retirement, philanthropy, or semi-retirement.
In dentistry, where 70% of practices are owner-dependent, strategic ownership can double your value in 3-5 years.

"Strategic ownership turned my practice from a job into an empire. My exit? Seamless and seven figures richer."

"The sudden death of my mentor, Dr. Von A. Mitton, a brilliant oral surgeon and my employer, came without warning in 2005, just months after I finished dental hygiene school. A brain aneurysm took him far too soon, and in that heartbreak, I found my purpose. His loss taught me that life and careers can change in an instant. That's why I now dedicate my work to sitting beside dentists and their spouses as they face the unexpected—building stronger exit strategies, protecting what matters most, and planning for a future that honors both their practice and their life."
— Angela Golden
With over 35 years of hands-on dental industry experience, from hygiene to building a DSO and consulting hundreds of dentists, Angela focuses on helping dentists systematically build maximum practice value in preparation for profitable, legacy-preserving internal transitions to associates or family members, or outside buyers. Using the proven Value Acceleration Methodology™, we can close the "Value Gap" through targeted assessments, 90-day action plans, de-risking, and customized succession strategies, delivering exit values 20–50% higher than unprepared practice owners.
​
Unlike general coaches or consultants, my exit-focused expertise ensures your practice becomes highly transferable and attractive to internal or external buyers while protecting the culture, relationships, and LEGACY you've built.
