Bernard Kowalski, DMD
Senior Dental Transition Consultant
Dr. Bernard R. Kowalski (“Bernie”) joined Choice Transitions (NPT) in 2013 as the mid Atlantic region territory representative for central and eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and portions of New York. Residing in Doylestown, Dr. Kowalski is geographically positioned to service his territory by: providing his clients with face-to-face meetings, accompanying buyers to practice showings, and being accessible for any issues that may arise throughout the entire transition process.
Having sold over one hundred dental practices himself over the past nine years with Choice Transitions, Dr. Kowalski understands the questions and concerns involved in the process and prides himself on his ability to provide the highest level of service possible to his fellow colleagues, who are more than just his clients. He has gained valuable expertise in practice valuations, negotiation skills, lease arrangements, in addition to building successful, cohesive teams and coordinating multiple priorities while working with brokers, attorneys, and financial representatives.
Dr. Kowalski holds a BS and MS from Rutgers University and a DMD from Fairleigh Dickinson University School of Dentistry, both in New Jersey. Following a General Practice residency at the Brooklyn VA Hospital in NYC, Dr. Kowalski worked as an associate in small practices and large clinics throughout New Jersey. He owned and operated 3 dental practices in New Jersey, including 2 offices that were started from scratch, before selling all 3 and relocating to Pennsylvania in 1997. Dr. Kowalski then bought an existing practice in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, before selling and transitioning a few years ago. Dr. Kowalski is a member of the American Dental Association, the Pennsylvania Dental Association, a Fellow in the Academy of General Dentistry, and a member of the Institute of Business Appraisers.
He and his wife reside in Doylestown, PA, with their 2 children.
