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.
A million thank you’s for a job well done in the sale of my practice. You skillfully matched me with a dentist who almost universally shared my practice philosophy. It gives me great comfort in knowing that my patients will be in capable hands. As I have told you many times, I’m very glad I hired you and I would recommend you highly to my colleagues. Thanks once again.

Dear Kevin, Ryan & Jan,
Thank you so much for your expert guidance through our practice transition. You turned what would seem to be a very complicated process into a very smooth process. You found us several qualified buyers, handled all the negotiations and orchestrated the transition of our practice elegantly. We know it was a good result, because in the end there were lots of smiling faces!
If you ever need a recommendation, I am more than happy to give you an enthusiastic one! Thank you once again.
Dr. Glenn Hultstrand
Both Mark and I wanted to take just a moment to say thank you. At a time that can be both very emotional – happy – sad – questioning, you helped us walk the walk relatively unfazed. We do not know all the little and big events that go on behind our scene, but just trusting and knowing you were there to handle it all on our behalf was reassuring. Thank you!
It’s hard to picture the next adventures that lie ahead, but we do so with a sense of awe and excitement. Life goes fast. We want to live and experience every moment to the fullest and continue to explore this glorious world God has created. Thank you again – may this year be one of valued friends. Much love and an adventure or two.
Dear Kevin,
I know I could not have managed this practice transition without you. You handled everything from start to finish and took care of all the details in between. As you know, we not only had the sale of my practice, but also an office lease and my post-closing employment agreement. You handled all of these masterfully. Throughout the entire process, your team kept me (and most importantly my wife) fully informed about all the goings on.
Probably most appreciated was your and Jan’s disposition through the entire process. Both of you kept us well informed and you stayed level-headed, even when things became somewhat intense. It’s always appreciated to have a cool hand at the wheel.
Of course we would highly recommend you to any other doctor considering a practice transition. We experienced first-hand why everyone says you are “the best in the business”. Thanks so much and best wishes.
Most sincerely,
Dr. Tom & Judy Schoeneberger
After 48 years in dentistry, I knew it was time to sell my practice and building and to retire. I wanted to have a professional broker market and negotiate the sale; I did not want to do it on my own. Experience, integrity, and professional skills were my criteria for selecting a broker. I had known Kevin Shea for many years and he had all the qualities that I required. We had several offers for our practice over a period of time that were all well vetted by Kevin. Once we found the right buyer, the sale went quickly and smoothly. For any of my colleagues thinking about selling, I would highly recommend Shea Practice Transitions.
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.
Thank you so much for your invaluable help in the sale of my dental practice. As you know, the sale of my practice involved over 35 years of my life’s work, and thus its sale had the potential to cause some anxiety. With your assistance, my anxieties were minimized. You certainly earned every penny of your commission. I know I couldn’t have sold my practice without your help, and if you ever need any recommendations, I would gladly provide them for you.
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.
Many thanks for your assistance in the sale of my practice! When I contemplated selling my practice, I considered others, but I know I made the very best choice with Shea Practice Transitions. I can see why you have built such an outstanding reputation. As you know, the sale of a practice can be very difficult for a dentist. You made the process as easy as it could be under somewhat bittersweet circumstances. Best of all, although I am leaving behind some friendships, I feel that I have made new friends in all of you!
