Relocating Your Dental Practice? WeCare is Here

Has your dental practice recently grown? Or are you looking for a new scenery for your practice? There are many reasons to move your practice. Maybe the building was sold, and you have to leave. Or your practice is too small to grow your business. You might want lower rent, more space to get new patients, a nicer office, an expired leases, or a better balance between work and life. No matter the reason, WeCare Practice Management is here to help you navigate the complexities of your dental practice relocation in NY.

A Guide to Relocating a Dental Practice in NY

Whether you're moving your dental practice across the street or to another city, it's crucial to have a relocation plan ready before moving day. As much as you might be familiar with your current location, dental practice relocation might be necessary as your practice grows or your needs change.

Know Your Timeline

When moving your dental practice, it's important to understand your timeline—knowing how long each step should take. Start by deciding when you want to open your doors at the new location. Then, work backward to figure out deadlines for big tasks like signing a new lease, getting the new space ready, moving equipment, and telling your patients about the move. Make sure you give yourself enough time for each step, so everything is ready for your opening day. This helps you move smoothly without rushing or last-minute problems.

Choosing A New Location

When choosing a new location for your dental practice, consider where it would be best to move. Look for a place where your patients can easily get to and where there aren't too many other dentists competing for attention. Consider if the area has the right kind of people who might need your services. Also, think about the cost of the space and whether it fits your budget. Make sure the new location has enough room for all your equipment and any plans you have to grow your business in the future. Picking the right spot can help your practice succeed in its new home.

Understand Your Budget and Marketing Strategy

When moving your dental practice, it's important to know how much you can spend and have a plan for telling people about your move. First, figure out your total budget for things like updates to the new place, new equipment, and any time you might be closed during the move.

Next, think about how you'll let your current patients know you're moving and how you'll attract new patients once you're there. You might use online ads, social media, or community events to spread the word.

WeCare can help you with all of this. As a firm that specializes in helping dental and healthcare businesses, WeCare can guide you in choosing an affordable location and creating a marketing plan. This way, you can save money and get noticed in your new area.

Dental Relocation Vs. Dental Transitions

When considering changes to your dental practice, it's important to understand the difference between dental relocation and dental transitions. Here's a simple breakdown of the key differences:

Dental Relocation:

  • Moving Your Practice: This involves physically moving your practice to a new location, which might be across town or to a different city.
  • Finding a New Space: You’ll need to choose a new office that fits your needs, which can include more space, a better location, or more modern facilities.
  • Costs Involved: There are costs for moving equipment, setting up the new space, and possibly higher rent.
  • Marketing Needs: You'll need to update your patients and attract new ones in the area where you move.

Dental Transitions:

  • Ownership Changes: This refers to changes in who owns and runs the practice. It might be selling your practice, bringing in a partner, or stepping back from management.
  • Preparing for Sale: If selling, you might need to update equipment or procedures to make the practice more appealing.
  • Legal and Financial Planning: Transitions require careful planning to handle contracts, financial agreements, and possible employee changes.
  • Continuity for Patients: Ensuring that patients continue to receive care during and after the transition is crucial.

Both relocation and transitions require careful planning and consideration of how each will impact your practice and your personal goals. WeCare can assist with both processes, offering expertise in finding the right location and managing the complexities of practice transitions.
