Testimonials

Tony C. Braunreiter, D.D.S.

As you know over the years, I have completed a few transactions with you.  During those transactions, I have been a seller, a buyer and you also helped facilitate a buy-in.  In all these situations, your expertise, integrity and professionalism have been outstanding.  I know that when I eventually sell my practice, I will be looking to you for assistance once again.  If anyone asks who to go to for dental practice transitions, I can say with conviction that there’s only one place to go – Shea Practice Transitions.  Thanks again!


Robert Donsker, D.D.S.

Shea Practice Transitions did a remarkable job with the sale of my dental practice.  Ryan was very diligent in pursuing all leads and was able to sell my practice much quicker than I anticipated.  I was also very impressed with Ryan’s communication with me throughout the process.  He kept me informed each step of the way.

I feel strongly that Shea Practice Transitions’ well-earned reputation and hard work enabled the whole process to be completed quickly.  I couldn’t be more pleased with the doctors who will be carrying on my legacy.


A. William Anderson, D.D.S.

I am grateful to Shea Practice Transitions for their excellent work in the sale of my dental practice. Kevin, Ryan and Jan were all most helpful. Their personal support was significant and important to me in this venture. I highly recommend Shea Practice Transitions.


David DeSimone, D.D.S.

After 35 years of practice in the northwest suburbs, I decided to retire and sell my practice.  I decided to utilize Shea Practice Transitions in order to reach this goal.  Within three weeks of the practice being listed, I had two full price offers from dentists in the Twin Cities area.  I was quite surprised at having multiple offers so quickly.  The valuation model that Shea Practice Transitions utilized is fair for both the purchaser and the seller of any dental practice.  The sale went extremely well and I received 100% of my appraised value purchase price.

I highly recommend Shea Practice Transitions to any dentist thinking of selling their practice.  It was an easy transition and was handled in a very professional manner. I would like to thank Ryan, Jan and Kevin for making the transition so easy.


Kathleen McCann, D.D.S.

Ryan Brengman and the team at Shea Practice Transitions designed the perfect sale of my practice, finding just the right buyer to allow me to semi-retire but remain active as a part-time associate in the practice.  I appreciated Ryan’s understanding of my transition needs, and his creativity and patience were genuine.  Ryan’s sense of humor made a serious life transaction very uplifting and positive.


Richard E. Kraft, D.D.S.

Wow!  Thank you, thank you, thank you for the fantastic job you did in helping me sell my practice and building.  You and your staff’s attention to detail, professionalism and just plain hard work were the key to getting my deal done.

From time to time, some of my colleagues have told me that you can easily sell your practice on your own.   However, I realize it would have been impossible for me to complete this on my own.  The complexity of both the practice and the building sale are such that a layman would be foolish to attempt it by themselves.  As a result, I consider the fees you charged “money very well spent”!

Once again Kevin, thank you, Jan and Ryan for your expertise and a job well done.


David E. Weiss, D.D.S.

I received a timely suggestion from a retired dental friend of mine. His advice was to contact Kevin Shea. My friend’s opinion proved to be extremely valuable. After forty plus years of practice, my patients had become like my family and Kevin was careful to match my personality and office with the proper person. My confidentiality was respected and Kevin’s professional yet amiable demeanor helped greatly in our proceedings. I can truly say it was a real pleasure to work with Shea Practice Transitions.

During my years of practice, I demanded the highest standards and performance from myself and my staff; in the sale of my practice, Shea Practice Transitions met or exceeded these high standards. The services provided were very comprehensive, including the appraisal, marketing, contract drafting, legal issues, negotiation, financing, closing and transition. I would recommend Kevin wholeheartedly to my friends and colleagues.


Barry H. Nelson, D.D.S.

Shea Practice Transitions recently sold my practice for me and I want to let anyone know how pleasant an experience it was. All three people I dealt with, Kevin, Ryan and Jan, were just so helpful and professional. I would recommend Shea Practice Transitions to anyone. You can have every confidence in them.


Richard B. Fuller, D.D.S.

After almost 40 years practicing dentistry, I decided it was time to call it quits and move on to another chapter in my life.  At first I attempted to find a buyer without the help of a broker because, “I could!”

Well after three prospective buyers and one who just walked away minutes before signing the purchase agreement because she had “personal issues”, I decided it was time to hire an expert in practice transitions and stop trying to do it myself.

All I can say is that the decision to go with Shea Practice Transitions was worth every penny!

Ryan Brengman was easy to deal with and had great ideas on how to proceed with the sale.  After showing the office to multiple prospects and discussing the financials, he came up with a vetted buyer who fit my needs.

Moving on to closing the deal turned into a nightmare with the Landlord, but we finally completed negotiations with Ryan’s expert help and 24/7 attention to details.

I recommend Shea Practice Transitions to any dental professional who is ready to make the transition to retire and wants to get a buyer that is vetted and not just a tire kicker.
