Three ways we work together

Wherever you are on the road to ownership — weighing a purchase, planning a startup, or holding the keys already — there's a clear place to start.

Buy a practice

Evaluate the deal before you sign it. Due diligence on the financials, staff, equipment, and patient base — with support through negotiation and closing.

Start a practice

From site selection and buildout to equipment, systems, and opening day. Launch with a plan instead of a pile of guesses.

See how →

Run it well

Your first years as an owner, guided. KPIs, scheduling, team building, and the systems that turn a busy practice into a profitable one.

Advice from someone who's done it

I'm Dr. Forest Ratchford, DDS. I own and operate three dental offices — and I remember exactly how it felt to buy the first one. Doctors Inc. exists so your path to ownership is calmer, clearer, and better planned than mine was.
