Our History

Choice Transitions, founded by Daniel Baccari and Scott Cabral, is the result of nearly thirty years of experience in the dental transition marketplace.  In 1996, Baccari and Cabral both graduated from law school and entered into the dental transition field gaining their early experience working for a local dental practice broker.

In 1998, Mr. Baccari opened Baccari & Associates and began transitioning dental practices in the New England area. Mr. Cabral joined him in 2003 and they formed The Baccari Cabral Group (BCG). BCG became one of the fastest growing brokerage firms in New England, successfully selling numerous dental practices.

In 2008, BCG started expanding outside of the New England area and was transformed into National Practice Transitions (NPT), which opened its first office outside of New England in Columbus, Ohio.

Since then, the NPT team has successfully continued to grow and has opened several offices across the US, under the trade name Choice Transitions, stretching as far west as Illinois and Texas, covering all the states in between and down the eastern seaboard through Florida.

What Our Clients Say About Us

Thanks to NPT and Jason, I have fulfilled my dream of retirement in sunny Florida. Selling a practice in a small town can be very difficult but Jason made it a very smooth transition!

Shadyside, OH

"The practice transition experience with Bernie and Choice Transitions exceeded all expectations.  He understood my needs and wants, took the time to listen closely to both parties, responded quickly to all communications, and closed the deal earlier than forecasted.  In the end he gave me a card which reflected who I am at my core, to put it simply he got me.  I truly appreciate everything he did to allow Esther and I an early retirement." 

Dr. Charles Harding, DMD, PC
Lehigh County, PA

I have been a client of Bernie Kowalski and Choice Transitions (NPT) since 2017.  He represented me in selling my practice and my wife's practice over the past years and through some difficult times.  He has been a loyal friend, a confidant and worked tirelessly for me since that time.  I highly recommend Bernie and the Choice Team." 

Dr. Michael Bone, DMD
Lackawanna County, PA

Your help in negotiating a fair deal for both parties, smoothing out snags from the lawyers, informing the staff of the transition plan, and follow-up advice after the sale were all invaluable.

Helen Molloy, DMD
Falmouth, MA

We want to thank you for your help and patience throughout this lengthy process. It is greatly appreciated!

Drs. Sumeet Saxena & Ambreen Bawa
Hadley, MA

Making the decision to sell your practice is not an easy one. However, I knew that working with Scott Cabral and his team would be much easier than trying to do things on my own. NPT did an outstanding job coordinating all the pieces and putting together the package that resulted in the sale of my practice with very little stress. I would recommend NPT to anyone considering selling or planning ahead to sell their practice.

Mary Jane Hanlon, DMD
Lexington, MA

My broker, Dr. Harry Snydman, is a dentist who actually understands dental aspects of the transition and that's a huge plus when you need to discuss the concerns that come with the selling or buying practice. Dr. Snydman understood my current situation of selling the practice and worked with me all the way to the end to keep the sale discrete and confidential.

Benjamin Lee, DMD
Fairfax County, VA

I am forever grateful for the long days, weeks and months that Amanda Christy sacrificed sleepless nights with numerous text messages and phone calls to make this transaction a success for both the buyer and myself.

Joy Graves, DMD
Fayetteville, NC

Thank you Bernie.  I appreciate all of your guidance and help through the process.  It wasn't all easy but I'm glad that Matt is taking over.  He is fitting in well and the patients seem to be accepting him.  Thanks again.

“I used Choice Transitions for my practice sale.  The buyer had previous experience with them and I thought that would make the buyer more comfortable. They proved to be very thorough and eased the final sale with a prepared contract and patient announcement letter.”
