Tend opened its first studio in Nashville on Sept 28, adding a fifth clinical market to its growing national presence.
The company currently operates 22 locations across Washington D.C., Boston, Atlanta and New York City, where it debuted its first studio in October 2019. Tend East Nashville, located in the Five Points neighborhood, will add to the company’s presence in Music City, where their corporate headquarters and over 100 team members are based.
“Tend’s arrival in Nashville is truly a full circle moment,” said Doug Hudson, the locally based co-founder and CEO of Tend, in a news release. “For the last three years, our team members here have been heads down building Tend at a rapid pace to accommodate the quick growth of our member demand since our launch. I couldn’t be prouder to debut our ‘hometown’ clinical outpost to share our mission with our team members and the community.”
With a mission to transform dentistry into an empowering, human and joyful experience, Tend has become ubiquitous in major cities along the East Coast and now serves upwards of 100,000 members. The modern, tech-driven dental studios are known for their design, seamless online booking, expert clinicians, wide range of services and elevated in-person experience driven by hospitality touchpoints.
Its East Nashville location will be joined by additional openings in 2023 as the organization continues to scale its full-service dentistry model nationwide and deepening its presence in existing markets like the D.C. and New York City metropolitan areas.
