Doctor's Choice Practice Transitions

I had an outstanding experience working with Doctor’s Choice Practice Transitions, especially with Shawn Smith, during my recent practice purchase in Clearwater, Florida. From the very beginning, Shawn’s communication was exceptional. He was always available, responsive, and proactive in keeping me updated throughout every stage of the process. Buying a practice can be complex and stressful, but Shawn made everything feel organized and manageable. He explained each step clearly, answered every question thoroughly, and ensured I felt confident before making any decisions. What truly stood out was his friendly and approachable style. Shawn combines professionalism with a genuine, personable attitude that makes you feel supported rather than pressured. He took the time to understand my goals, my vision for the practice, and what would be the right fit for me long term. It never felt transactional — it felt like he truly cared about helping me succeed. Thanks to his guidance, negotiation skills, and attention to detail, I was able to successfully purchase a practice in Clearwater with confidence and clarity. His ability to coordinate between attorneys, lenders, and the seller while keeping communication smooth was invaluable. If you are considering buying or selling a dental practice, I highly recommend Docto’s Choice Practice Transitions — and especially Shawn Smith. His integrity, transparency, and outstanding communication make all the difference in what can otherwise be a very complicated process. Five stars all the way.

I had the pleasure of working with Shawn Smith at Doctor's Choice during the sale of my dental practice and real estate, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. From the seller’s side, he was everything you’d hope for in a transition broker—personable, responsive, and genuinely invested in keeping the process moving smoothly. What really stood out was how Shawn handled an incredibly difficult situation when the bank made a major mistake that could have derailed the entire sale. While others might have lost their patience, he stayed calm, professional, and persistent, working tirelessly until everything was finally resolved. I truly appreciated the steady communication and the sense that I was never left hanging—calls and texts were always answered quickly, and I always knew where things stood. I highly recommend Shawn to anyone looking for a trustworthy and capable broker to handle their transition.

Dr. Jerry Pyser from Dr. Choice has been absolutely outstanding. He does a tremendous job, is always supportive, and stays on top of every detail throughout the entire process. He has the right tools and a strong team to guide and support you every step of the way in acquiring your dental practice. Highly recommend!

I have had 3 dental practice transitions throughout my career and the current experience with Doctor’s Choice has been the most seamless. It has been a pleasure to meet Joe Booksh, Greg Jones and Jason Kaplan. Their professionalism and knowledge is current and on point. They are sensitive to the current trends of dentistry and advise accordingly. Joe was extremely accessible at all times for my many questions! As a dentist, we are given options today that are tempting but minimize the facts and eminent results. With Doctor’s Choice, you are educated first and managed second. All parties are in agreement before the process even begins. I highly advise you to attend their sponsored seminars as you begin a transition whether you are a buyer or seller. The practice evaluation met all expectations by all parties including the lender with no question. We all have agreed this was a “perfect transition”. I am assured my patients will remain in good hands as I transition to retirement.

I had an excellent experience working with Joe Booksh during the acquisition of my dental practice in Hollywood FL, during the years of 2024 to 2025. I began my search while living out-of-state and planning a return back to Florida (adding several layers of complexity to the matter.) From the beginning, Joe took the time to understand what I was looking for, financially and philosophically. And after working with previous brokers, he stood out as a pleasant, down-to-earth guy. Although the right opportunity wasn’t immediately available, we maintained some communication and he respectfully kept me informed. Several months later, he ended up bringing me the practice which I proudly operate today (writing this four months post-acquisition.) Throughout the process, he handled the dynamics between buyer and seller with professionalism, transparency, and grace. Joe is straightforward, trustworthy, and genuinely excellent at what he does. I have zero regrets working with him, and I have no reservations when recommending him to others. Thank you Joe!

Selling my dental practice was a huge life transition, and I couldn’t have asked for a better partner than Joe. From our first conversation, he made me feel supported, understood, and confident in the process. Joe combined his expertise with genuine care — he wasn’t just focused on the deal, he was focused on me, my patients, and making sure the transition felt right. He guided me through every step with patience, clarity, and integrity. I believe part of making a transition great is getting to know the buyer and the seller, then making the match. Joe is such a great listener and he did exactly that. Thanks to him, I found the perfect buyer and felt at peace with such an important decision. I’m truly grateful for Joe and recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone considering selling their practice.

I had the pleasure of working alongside Michael Connor for my recent transaction. He assisted in every capacity from lease transitioning (we had 2 leases to do) and mediation between us and the seller. We purchase Lach Orthodontics in the Orlando area and have been truly happy with he acquisition. Please feel free to reach out to me if you need a further reference. He was great to work with.

Working with Doctor choice and Jerry Psyer was one of the best decisions I made in my journey to practice ownership. This process can be overwhelming, but Jerry was always available to answer my questions, provide clarity, and advocate for my best interests. I couldn’t have done this without his help and would highly recommend Doctor choice services to any dental professional.

Joe Booksh was an excellent professional to work with during the entire practice acquisition experience. He was very helpful to both the seller and I in getting all the paperwork ready. Guided us step by step and made the whole experience very smooth. Highly recommend him to anyone interested in selling or buying a dental practice. You’re the best Joe!

I can’t not say enough great things about Doctors Choice and Joe Booksh. From the minute I talked to Joe about wanting to sell my dental practice, he put me at ease. He helped me along the way in every aspect without giving me a stress. Whenever I had a question or concern he addressed them immediately. His professionalism stands out as well. He was so well organized. I have to even admit he was even a great counselor for me and my staff as the ideas of the transition process was getting closer. I can’t praise him or his work enough. I would recommend him wholeheartedly!! Thank you Joe and Doctor’s Choice!!!!!!
