Hello all...I wanted any opinion/advice on this..
I am a recent orthodontist 2011 grad looking for an associatship/partnership..I have had 7 years of GP experience before getting into ortho school....as I am looking for a spot to practice ortho I have come to realize it is a tough market...
However, an oppotunity arrised to work with a six GP office (12 chairs, ten hygienist, parttime pedo)..there are three owners (two or former dental school classmates)..they have seen that they are referring 30-45 ortho patients out every month..so they asked me to join them..the office is an underserved area about 1 hour away from metro city
they offered a partnership after one year of associateship (paying 900/day or 50% of collections which ever is greater)...but to buy one quarter of their practice will cost 1-1.25 million (they gross 4 million)...
this is a little stressful for me since I dont know any ortho people that have worked inhouse with GP..any ideas ??? what do u guys think?? has anyone out there done this ??
thank you so much
