About the Speakers:

 

Dr. Harry Snydman

Dr. Harry Snydman joined Choice Transitions in late-2019 after a successful 30 year career as a private practice general dentist.  Residing just outside of Baltimore, Harry is able to assist buyers and sellers in the Baltimore, DC,  Northern Virginia, and Delaware areas, including direct meetings with sellers, and attending practice showings with buyers.  He is known to be extremely accessible and very responsive to the needs or questions of his clients during the entire process.  He is also the Senior DSO Specialist for Choice Transitions, and assists all of the state territory representatives on DSO sales company-wide.  In this capacity, he has exposure to several dozen DSO/Corporate transactions every year, is familiar with all of the currently active DSO practice buyers, and understands the current trends, multiples, and deal structures being presented.
He is well respected as an excellent clinician, and was named a Baltimore Magazine Top Dentist in 2012 and 2014.   Throughout his career he has experienced firsthand almost all aspects of the dental practice ownership cycle. After a lengthy associateship, he started a practice from scratch, building it efficiently and managing it profitably for 24 years.   His practice also relocated once, and he was instrumental in the design, layout and equipment purchases for both facilities.  During the sale of his practice, he gained a wealth of knowledge, tips, and strategies for a successful transition.  He brings real-world experience to the process, and understands the emotions involved in a practice sale or purchase.
 
Dr. Snydman holds a BA from Lafayette College, a DDS from the University of Maryland School of Dentistry, and completed a General Practice residency at John F. Kennedy Medical Center in Edison, NJ.  He is a member of the American Dental Association, and the Maryland State Dental Association.
  
Harry is married with two adult daughters.  Residing in Reisterstown, MD he is an avid Baltimore sports fan, and enjoys golfing, running, and fitness.
