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 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

“Dan and Choice Transitions were instrumental in introducing us to the buyer who would best suit the personality of our practice. Dan guided us through the entire process allowing us to transition our practice with confidence and ease. The best part was Choice sold my practice commission-free! You’re the best!”

Francis P. Camp
Hartford County, CT

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

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

NPT and Bernie Kowalski did a great job in valuing and marketing my practice.  They were very efficient and professional and did find a buyer for my practice.

Dr. Lee Flinner, DMD
Adams County, PA

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 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

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

Thank you for helping us through this big transition. Now I understand the complexities of selling a practice. Again, your patience and calm were helpful. I am thankful that Jason Gamble. with NPT, worked with me to sell my practice in a timely manner. He coordinated all the people involved in the transaction and was always available to me for questions and answers. I would recommend him to help other dentists, as he is a true professional.

R. Scott Huey, DDS
Kettering, OH

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.
