Cullompton private dental practice sold

18 March 2024

Christie & Co, a specialist business property adviser, has announced the sale of Gold’s Place Dental Practice in Cullompton, Devon.

Gold’s Place is a high-quality single-surgery, predominantly private dental practice that offers a range of dental treatments, including general dentistry, whitening, veneers, implants, periodontal, and endodontics. The practice is situated in the market town of Cullompton, Devon, just under 12 miles northeast of Exeter and a little over 18 miles southwest of Taunton.

It has been owned by Olga Palmer since 2008 and was brought to market so that she could reduce her working hours and focus solely on clinical work. 

Following a confidential sales process with Jamie Williams at Christie & Co, the practice has been purchased by Robert Glenning and Andy Rochester of Devon-based Peninsula Dental Ltd, which trades as Unity Dental Group. They plan to expand to three surgeries this year and have a fourth in the pipeline.

Olga Palmer, the former owner, said, “I am very pleased about joining the co-operative group of dentists in South Devon called Unity Dental Group. I am looking forward to the exciting future ahead working alongside these experienced professionals providing the highest standard of dental care.”

Rob Glenning, the new owner of Gold’s Place Dental Practice, commented, “We are delighted that Gold’s Place Dental Practice has joined our existing cooperative of practices in Devon. We are especially pleased to confirm that Olga Palmer and her nurse Janis are staying on to help look after the existing patients and welcome new ones, too. In the coming months, we will have new team members joining Gold’s to ensure we can look after as many patients as possible.”

Jamie Williams, associate director of dental at Christie & Co, said, “It was great to have worked with Peninsula Dental Limited on another deal, and I’m delighted at the outcome for my client.

“The independent dental market in the southwest continues to thrive, and there are a variety of active buyers in the region, with all practice types in demand.”

Gold’s Place Dental Practice was sold for an undisclosed price.
