UDC’s first wave of practices features a mix of specialty and general practice dentists located in key markets in California, Arizona, and Georgia. The practices included in the initial launch were selected to provide specific platform-level specialty and operations support to subsequent waves of acquisitions in UDC’s pipeline. UDC anticipates closing its second and third tranches of practices by March 2023.

UDC Chairman and Co-Founder Dr. Ray Khouri said, “Today’s announcement highlights the strength of our differentiated business model, which has historically resulted in up to a 98% doctor retention rate in Australia and New Zealand. We are delighted to partner with the successful owner-dentists who have placed their trust in UDC. We look forward to rapidly scaling UDC as it becomes the premier destination and partner for exceptional dental practices.”

Equity funding was led by Doshi Capital Partners (DCP), the family office of Drs. Nitin and Leena Doshi. Dr. Nitin Doshi commented, “We are thrilled to support Ray and the UDC team. UDC’s model is unique to the DSO space, particularly its innovative and proven approach that attracts entrepreneurial dentists, enabling them to achieve even greater success while maintaining their autonomy. Given my experience as both an operator and investor across the dental industry, I look forward to my partnership with UDC as an engaged and active Board member and investor.”

White Oak Healthcare Finance LLC provided the debt financing for the acquisition.

High Speed Ventures, under the leadership of Dr. Forrest Bryant, bolstered UDC’s launch by investing in two rounds of funding from the dentists and individual investors that are clients of High Speed Alliance. HSV’s total investment of over $5MM to date, underscores their support of Dr. Ray Khouri’s leadership and the industry-disrupting UDC team and business model.
