The focus of my entire career since 2000 was building Riveredge Cosmetic Dentistry in Sunderland. Our goal was always to provide the highest quality treatments. Over the years we have won multiple awards and earned an outstanding reputation. When it came time for me to consider an exit strategy I had concerns that the practice would have little value because I had been ever present and without me the practice may have been considered a risky purchase. At my first meeting with Lily Head, I shared these concerns. Lily’s response was immediate and definite. She said ‘Let me be the judge of that. I know people who would be very interested in your practice’. Lily earned my trust and never let me down. Lily and I discussed the high clinical standards I wanted. What I was not prepared to put up with whilst realising the true value of the practice. Unfortunately, Lily and I decided to pull out of one deal during the due diligence because we found the buyers were not right for me, my team and my patients. What I can say is that Lily and her team always worked in my best interests even though it meant more work and a longer transaction time for them. Lily negotiated an excellent deal with excellent terms and I am proud that Riveredge is now part of the Dentex Health Group.

Lily Head have been a great help with selling my dental practice. Knowledgeable, professional and empathetic. Chris Major and Rachel Godfrey were always there to support me with excellent advice. Very happy, would thoroughly recommend Lily Head Dental Practice Sales to my colleagues.

The team at Lily Head Dental Practice Sales came highly recommended to me by my accountant Karen Wicks at Humphrey & Co. This proved to be another excellent piece of advice from Karen. I wanted to sell my dental practice, but I did not want to retire from dentistry altogether. Two of my most cherished clients are Tottenham Hotspur Football Club and Saracens Rugby Club. I am honoured to be the Official Dental Surgeon for both organisations and am to be found ‘sitting behind the dugout’ as often as possible. The most important things to me were that I could stay on in my surgery as an associate and that I was going to be happy working for the new Principal. I initially met Lily Head, but my appointed dental broker was Helen Cheskin. Throughout the transaction Helen was supportive, kind, understanding and always at the end of the telephone for a discussion. Helen was very intelligent in her selection of prospective purchasers. Helen knew what I was looking for and did not send me any unsuitable purchasers. Helen’s attention to detail, continuous re assurance and cajoling (possibly aided by the fact that her husband is a Spurs supporter, too) was fantastic and I cannot recommend ‘Lily Head Dental Practice Sales’ more highly. I found the whole sale a traumatic and this is down to Helen and Lily’s humane care and attention. In conclusion, I could never have found better agents to help in my sale and a better person to whom to sell the practice.
