TKO Properties’ Solution to Dental Access Problem
TKO Properties is launching a brilliant Dental Platform to solve the dental provider access problem nationally.
The premise it is built on is, that the right Turnkey product designed to attract and retain providers and patients is needed. That product is a combination of a Turnkey destination designed facility in the communities of highest need along with TurnKey operating systems and brands. Lastly, providers need to have an incentive to stay on to serve the community for a while.
To prevent the providers from leaving to work elsewhere as associate or becoming competition and recruiting trained staff we offer ownership and support services so they can, “be in business for yourself but not by yourself.”
These facilities are A prime real estate that can generate pride of ownership and attracting new patients provide plenty patients for high revenues.
Our experience servicing this niche very efficiently has yielded high profit margins for owners using a precursor model.
