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

I have had a positive experience with NPT- Choice Transitions.  On short notice, Bernie Kowalski was able to identify a dentist who was interested in becoming the custodian of my patient records.  He was very attentive and responsive to my calls and in moving the contract to successful conclusion.  I recommend him highly.

R. Lawrence Fraze, DDS
Somerset County, NJ

I was looking to sell my practice, but not retire completely.  Dr. Kowalski not only found the right buyer, but facilitated the entire process effortlessly.  His help continued after the sale as he followed through on several small issues.  I would recommend him highly.

Dr. Ralph Besho, DMD
Middlesex County, NJ

I would like to thank NPT and especially Dr. Fred Bacon for not giving up on the sale of my practice. I think I gave them a real challenge, but they came through with the kind of deal that suited my situation perfectly. I highly recommend NPT for any sale or transition.

Joseph M. Ross, DDS
White County, TN

“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.”

Robert McCalla, DDS
Shelby County, TN

There are times in life when a simple thanks will suffice, but I would like to truly express my most sincere gratitude to Scott Cabral, Dr. Fred Bacon and those associated with National Practice Transitions. It's easy to say that they are a great group of dental brokerage consultants that are professional, efficient, and highly effective at selling dental practices, but that would sell them short.

Reed David, DDS
Gatlinburg, TN

Making the decision to sell your dental practice is very difficult. The process of selling your practice can also be difficult. Fortunately, I had the assistance of Dan Baccari and NPT who made the process easy. They were extremely professional and knowledgeable. With their expertise and guidance, the transition was seamless. I would highly recommend Dan and NPT to anyone planning this Transition.

Joyce Siogros-Pepi, DMD
Bristol County, MA

Thank you so much for transitioning my practice.  Your professionalism and attention to detail was superb and unparalleled.  You filtered through so many candidates and found us a perfect match.  Things are going great.  It is a very comfortable transition thanks to Choice Transitions.  Thank you again. 

Marc J. Magier, DMD
Norfolk County, MA

I greatly appreciate all the help, guidance and understanding you gave me. Your knowledge as a dental consultant coupled with your negotiating skills as attorneys made the acquisition and transition as simple as possible.

Theodore Goldberg, DMD
Watertown, MA

I was somewhat reluctant to begin this process, NPT and in particular Dr. Fred Bacon, were able to guide me through the process. Working with Fred and NPT proved to be very rewarding, personally and financially. NPT has an extensive network of contacts, and presented only credible candidates. They were very determined to work with my many difficulties and inexperience, and guide me through to completion. I recommend NPT without reservation to anyone seeking a professional transition.

Joseph F. Dove, DDS
Shelby County, TN

“When I made the decision to sell my practice, Bernie was with me every step of the way. Bernie was extremely knowledgeable about the market and helped find the doctor who bought my practice. I especially appreciated his communication and responsiveness throughout the entire sales process. I would highly recommend Bernie for anyone who is looking to sell their practice!”
