WHAT WE LIVE BY
Our Code of Ethics

Technical Competence & Education

A commitment to continuing education keeps our knowledge current and strengthens the work we do in practice valuation and brokerage.

Peer Review Committee

Our brokers share insights, ask questions, and discuss real transition challenges to support better outcomes for dentists.

Maintaining Integrity

No valuation opinion is given without full access to the facts needed to complete the assignment responsibly.

Independent Evaluations

Each valuation is completed independently because every ADS broker owns and operates an independent firm, eliminating conflicts of interest and following the laws and regulations of their state.

Strict Confidentiality

All client information is protected, and financial or proprietary details are only shared with written consent from the practice owner.

Professional Documentation

All valuations are delivered in writing and personally signed to provide clarity and accountability.
