Smile Brands and Johnson Family Dental Partner to Expand Services in Newbury Park, California
IRVINE, Calif. (PRWEB) March 09, 2018 -- Smile Brands Inc. together with its affiliate Johnson Family Dental announced today the acquisition of Newbury Park Dental Studio at 1620 Newbury Road, in Newbury Park, CA.
Johnson Family Dental provides comprehensive general and specialty dental care plus orthodontics at locations throughout Central California. The rapidly growing group has six convenient locations serving residents of Santa Barbara, Solvang, Ventura, Camarillo, Port Hueneme and now Newbury Park. Founded in 1963, Dr. Steven Johnson purchased the practice in 2001 and has expanded locations and services to meet the needs of the communities they serve.
“The population of Newbury Park has grown by nearly 25% over the past 15 years and access to convenient, high quality dental care has not kept pace,” notes Dr. Steve Johnson. “It was a natural fit for Johnson Family Dental to expand our services in this community. We see big opportunity to fill a gap in available general and specialty dental care in Newbury Park and look forward to making it easier for area residents to get the care they need.”
Dr. Bang Phan will remain with the practice and will be joined by Dr. Mondana Arami who has recently sold her practice in Northern California to move to the area. Both Dr. Arami and Dr. Phan are top rated dentists who bring years of experience to this office. The practice will be rebranded Johnson Family Dental, and area residents will enjoy expanded weekday and flexible financing options that will make it easier for local patients to get the care they need.
Smile Brands launched their partnership with Johnson Family Dental in June, 2017 to provide business support services; including, purchasing, payroll, billing, real estate, marketing and more. By partnering with Smile Brands, affiliated groups can accelerate their growth through add-on acquisitions, new locations and by leveraging the combined scale and operational expertise of Smile Brands and their supported groups.
Steve Bilt, CEO of Smile Brands, stated, “We’re excited to be helping Johnson Family Dental expand to meet the needs of the community. Their team reflects everything we look for in a partner; commitment to clinical quality, entrepreneurial spirit and a great patient-focused culture.”
