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 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.

From start to finish, my entire experience with your company was a positive one. I would sincerely recommend you to any of my friends considering the sale of their practice.

Gerald Jernegan, DMD
Braintree, MA

Bernie has been diligent in the sale of my practice. I would recommend anyone looking to buy or sell their practice go through Bernie at NPT. He was readily available no matter when to show the practice every time a buyer came to the office. His commitment speaks volumes compared to some other transition companies. He was always available to answer any questions or concerns." Thank you.

“Just a note of thanks to Bernie and Choice Transitions for all the help with the sale of my practice.  We faced a "few" obstacles along the way but in the end, with Bernie's guidance, the deal was closed.  I couldn't have asked for a better Christmas present.  Thanks for everything.” 

John Ifkovitz, DDS
Northampton County, PA

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

I'd like to express my gratitude for your assistance in sale of my practice. Your professionalism, deep knowledge of all complex aspects of transition, as well as personal involvement and attention to detail resulted in speedy and smooth transaction.  You made it so easy for both sides!   I am, most certainly, going to recommend your services to any of my colleagues who are or will soon be interested in sale of their practices. Thanks again for great work!

em>“We just wanted to drop you a note, Rick, thanking you and NPT for your assistance in selling our dental practice. You were readily available during the whole process (from appraisal to final sale). We were particularly impressed with your negotiation skills. The deal you crafted between us (the sellers) and the buyer was a well thought-out arrangement creating a win for both parties. Again, Thank You and NPT!!"

Dr. Chris Latvis and D. John Latvis Jr
Litchfield County, CT

If you want to work with a firm to facilitate the sale of your client's practice with amazing efficiency and professionalism, you'll never do better than NPT!  They dot the i's and cross the t's like no other.  Their ability to stay with the deal until it's done is superb.  Their efforts are worth every penny of the cost.

Paul Richards, CPA
Needham, MA

NPT moved my practice so fast it was truly amazing. Before I met Dan Baccari of NPT, I had listed my practice for sale with several other brokers with no luck at all and got nothing but broken promises. NPT completed what they promised in a professional manner.

Donald Macleod, DMD
Falmouth, MA

At times there was some bumps in the road selling the practice, but with Bernie's persistence the practice was sold.  I want to thank Bernie for not giving up, hats off.  Thank you National Practice Transitions.
