Flipping the script on the traditional DSO with our proprietary Doctor Equity™ model
01
Combining the best of private practice with the best of private equity
Doctors enjoy their private practice autonomy and control over clinical and practice decision-making while benefiting from business expertise, private equity knowledge sharing, and our ability to generate unbeatable private equity-sized multiples for the doctors without the DSO middleman taking half the share.
02
Optimizing EBITDA before a sale
Unlike traditional DSOs, we help doctors learn about the private equity business model and give them tools that build substantial practice value before selling.
03
Maximizing your outcome from a future sale
Our goal is to maximize the doctors’ outcome from a future sale of Phase 1 Equity to private equity by putting ~90% of the proceeds directly into the doctors’ pockets— twice the amount a doctor would receive in the traditional DSO model. This is what we mean when
we say we turn private equity into Doctor Equity™.

Benefit from an experienced team
We leverage decades of business experience building healthcare management groups that provide doctors with tools to help save money, optimize practice management, and maximize value.
05
Doctor-owned, Doctor-led
Phase 1 Equity ensures that doctors’ best interests come before business interests. Our leadership and governance model mandates that doctors own the platform, doctors hold board majority, doctors chair all the management committees, and doctors receive the lion’s share of the financial reward from a future sale.
We invite doctors to be our partners in something bigger
We are a doctor-owned, doctor-led and doctor-governed orthodontic and pediatric platform. We invest in ourselves and our practices, so collectively, we achieve a larger, private equity-sized return for our doctors, instead of the DSO.
