Testimonials

Buying the practice and running it for 25yrs. was never a problem. Selling it would have been a nightmare had it not been for Tom Orchard`s help. Tom supported us on the entire practice sales journey from introduction to completion with reassuring professionalism. Tom made the entire process as stress-free as possible. He was available to discuss each step of the sale and always provided us with sound and efficient advice. We are very pleased with the outcome he achieved for us. We can’t recommend Tom and Lily Head Dental Practice Sales highly enough.

Myself and my partners knew we needed a professional dental broker to sell our group of three orthodontic practices in West London. The business was too big and too intricate for anything else. My accountants and a friend of mine who is a Principal all recommended we talk to Lily Head Dental Practice Sales. We considered other brokers but I can say in hindsight that hiring Lily Head was a great decision for us. When we went to market Abi Greenhough and her team worked professionally and efficiently to introduce us to business people and corporates who fitted our profile and who could afford our group. When Abi took her holiday she passed our account onto her colleague Chris Mayor. This proved to be a seamless transition. Chris knew everything about our deal and I thought that was truly amazing. Abi was very proactive on our behalf which enabled us to continue running our business while she dealt with the sale. I would recommend Lily Head to anyone and could not fault them at any point.

My wife Melanie and I attended a seminar hosted by Lily Head Dental Practice Sales at the RAF Club in London. There was no doubt in our minds that they would work in our best interests and they earned our trust. We worked with Tom Orchard at Lily Head. Tom provided us a valuation of the practice and we agreed on asking price which reflected the history and potential of our practice. Tom arranged a number of very credible viewings and we were able to agree a deal quite soon after putting our practice on the market. Tom also negotiated a very flexible and favourable post-sale associate stay-on period. We were very pleased with our solicitor, Jonathan Tyson of Knights plc and their team whom we commissioned for the legal transaction as one of Lily Head’s recommended panel of solicitors. We got a great outcome from working with Tom and the team at Lily Head and we would not hesitate in recommending them to colleagues who are considering selling their dental practice.

Lily Head were so helpful in the purchase of mine and my brother’s new dental practice. We always felt valued and respected. Helen Cheskin was always keeping on top of things and made sure we were following the process correctly!

Chris (Major), thank you so much for all your professionalism and calmness from the moment we started our journey until it’s completion. I have to say there was never a moment when I doubted we would achieve our goal with you at the helm. I will always be grateful for all the help you and Lily Head Dental Practice Sales gave us. Putting our trust in you guys was a great decision.

Thanks Helen, you are a legend! X x

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.

What a nice surprise Helen. Thanks for champagne and we can now celebrate the completion of our sale. First day yesterday as an associate it felt very good. Many thanks for all your support. Someone said ‘why was I paying for an agent’? It amazes me that that some of my colleagues feel this way and I will explain all the reasons why in due course. Safe to say we would not have got the outcomes we wanted without your support and expertise.
