## Resource

Our guest for this episode is Dr. Luke Robert. Dr. Luke is a pediatric dentist from Georgia who bought a high-end fee-for-service practice at 130% of collections. Even with people telling him he shouldn't do the deal, he found a way to buy the practice and still make it work. In our conversation, we discuss: - The benefits of a FFS office - How his practice compares to his previous DSO associateships - Strategies for growing the practice - Strategic lending to finance the practice - How increasing his infant and toddler new patients accelerated growth and value
