Partnership for dentists · Montérégie and across Quebec
Become a Go Dentiste owner
Your expertise. Our capital. A clinic to build together. Go Dentiste lets dentists become true co-owners of their clinic: we bring the financing, the guarantees, the experience and the support of a growing banner, while you keep control of your practice day to day.
A real ownership stake, not just a job
Our model rests on a simple conviction: dentists who build a clinic with us must be its true owners. You hold a real stake in the clinic and benefit from the value you help create, instead of watching it go to a consolidator or an employer.
Go Dentiste sits exactly between the solo dentist and the large investment fund: strong enough to finance and guarantee your projects, close enough to respect your autonomy, your name and the way you practise.
What we bring to the table
Experience
A group that has built, operated and sold clinic networks, and has passed CA$100 million in assets.
Credibility
With lenders, clinic sellers, suppliers and landlords.
Liquidity
A well-capitalized group able to finance and guarantee the acquisition or opening of a clinic.
Added value
A banner, purchasing synergies, a central administrative team and an exit strategy designed to increase the value of your clinic.
How value is created
An independent clinic can be profitable, yet have limited means to negotiate purchases, recruit, build awareness or finance growth. By bringing several clinics under one banner, we negotiate better terms with suppliers and share administration, marketing and appointment booking. When the savings exceed the cost of these services, profits rise.
A well-organized group also attracts more buyers: its revenue comes from several locations and its operations depend less on a single professional. A buyer may therefore agree to pay more for every dollar of profit.
Purely illustrative example, in Canadian dollars
We keep the same adjusted annual profit of $500,000, after normal dentist compensation and management fees, but before interest, taxes and depreciation.
| Price equal to 4 times profit | $500,000 × 4 = $2,000,000 |
| Price equal to 8 times profit | $500,000 × 8 = $4,000,000 |
| Price equal to 12 times profit | $500,000 × 12 = $6,000,000 |
In this example, moving from 4 to 8 times profit doubles the value of the business before debt; moving from 4 to 12 times triples it. This is the mechanism we aim to use, not a guaranteed result. Because you hold a real stake, you can benefit from that growth; the amount you receive depends on your ownership percentage, debt, fees and the terms of your agreement.
Ownership with no down payment
Our financial capacity and our guarantees make it possible, for eligible projects, to put in place financing covering up to 100% of the acquisition or opening cost, with no down payment from the partner dentist.
In this model, the group takes on the guarantees agreed with the lender: you do not have to provide a personal guarantee when this condition is confirmed in the financing documents. You become an owner without tying up your savings; the clinic remains responsible for repaying its loans.
You keep your autonomy and benefit from our experience
We favour an advisory approach. You run day-to-day operations and clinical decisions remain entirely in your hands, as required by the Ordre des dentistes du Québec and the law. We support you with acquisition, financing, management and growth: you get help to decide, never a boss deciding for you.
Capital
The group brings the capital and the guarantees the project needs.
Management tools
Bookkeeping, bill payment, clear financial information, AI tools: you choose what is useful to you.
Strategic support
Guidance available when you need it, never imposed.
Real estate
An optional, separate opportunity to invest alongside us in the group’s real estate projects.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to invest my own money to become a co-owner?
For eligible projects, financing can cover up to 100% of the acquisition or opening cost and the group takes on the guarantees agreed with the lender. Each file is analyzed individually and the final terms are those of the signed financing documents.
Do I keep control of my practice?
Yes. Clinical and professional decisions belong exclusively to the dentist, in accordance with the rules of the Ordre des dentistes du Québec. You run your clinic’s daily operations; we play an advisory and support role.
What percentage of the clinic will I own?
This is defined in the tailored proposal, based on the project, the financing and your contribution in work. The goal is for you to hold a real and meaningful stake, with a clear view of the value created and the exit strategy.
Can I join an existing clinic, or do I have to open one?
Both are possible: become co-owner of an existing or upcoming Go Dentiste (Saint-Zotique in 2027, for example), or open a new Go Dentiste in your area with the group’s banner, financing and team.
Does the structure comply with the Ordre des dentistes du Québec?
Yes. The practice of dentistry is reserved for dentists and any ownership structure is set up in compliance with the Dental Act, the Professional Code and ODQ regulations, with your own legal and accounting advisors.
How long does the process take?
From the first conversation to financing in place, generally count a few months, depending on the complexity of the project and lender timelines. Opening a new clinic takes longer than joining an existing one.
