Parkview Dental Partners, a leading dental support organization backed by Cathay Capital, today announced the acquisition of two Lifetime Smiles Dental Care practices located in Sarasota and St. Petersburg, Florida. On the heels of its acquisition of Breezy Dental, a practice in Tampa, this investment further solidifies Parkview’s position in the Gulf Coast region.
Lifetime Smiles Dental Care has been offering comprehensive dental services in the Sarasota and St. Petersburg regions for ten years. The practice is known for its culture-driven approach, which prioritizes patient experience and a positive team environment, and a history of supporting patients for the long-term.
“Lifetime Smiles Dental Care is a well-known, well-respected brand in the markets it serves,” said Rene Sauerteig, CEO of Parkview. “Dr. Donato and his team have built an impressive practice with a strong focus on patient experience and a positive team environment. We look forward to supporting their continued success and providing them with the resources they need to thrive.”
Dr. Christopher Donato, owner of Lifetime Smiles Dental Care, expressed his enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “Joining Parkview Dental Partners will allow us to focus on what we do best—providing excellent patient care—while benefiting from Parkview’s operational and administrative expertise. We are confident that this partnership will benefit our patients and team members alike.”
Dr. Donato is supported in Sarasota and St. Petersburg by a strong team of skilled dentists, such as Dr. Tyler Branscombe and Dr. Leronne Perera. Both practices will continue to operate under the Lifetime Smiles Dental Care brand.
