CORE VALUES
Supporting dentists during their exit strategy is a tremendous responsibility. The Owner of the dental practice has worked hard for several years, and it is our mission to ensure their next adventure in life is the one they want and not a life they are settling for because of a poorly executed sale of their practice. No one should have to settle.
At MacLeran & Vaughan our leadership philosophy is a written ‘handshake’ to share with those we support in what they can expect from us as a partner is this exit strategy.
