Parkview Dental Partners, a leading dental services provider backed by Cathay Capital, today announced the acquisition of Dr. Douglas C. Wendt Jr.’s periodontic practice in Brandon, Florida. The practice will now operate as Ross and Wendt, Periodontics and Dental Implants.
This strategic acquisition further expands Parkview Dental’s regional footprint, bringing Parkview to 25 practices. The addition of a specialized periodontic practice enables Parkview to better serve the growing community and deliver a comprehensive range of dental services to the West Coast of Florida.
“This acquisition reflects our commitment to increasing the breadth of Parkview’s services and providing better, more comprehensive patient care to the West Coast of Florida,” said Rene Sauerteig, CEO of Parkview.
Dr. Douglas C. Wendt Jr., the practice’s founder, will transition the practice to Dr. Ken Ross, a periodontist with over 25 years of experience on the West Coast of Florida.
“I’ve had the privilege of serving this community for many years, and I’m incredibly proud of the practice we’ve built,” said Dr. Douglas C. Wendt Jr. “I’m confident that Dr. Ross and the team at Parkview Dental will continue to lead the practice and build upon the strong foundation we’ve established.”
