Major business decisions require more than instinct; they also require insight. A strong understanding of the M&A market can help business leaders make informed, strategic choices and navigate growth.
In this three-part series of The Advisor’s Table, Brian and Michael break down what’s happening across dental, healthcare, and the businesses that support them as we look ahead into 2026.
Part 1: Dental M&A in 2026
We begin with the dental industry and the evolving DSO landscape. Brian and Michael break down what’s next for DSOs, how the market is shifting, and why staying informed can position your practice for smarter long-term decisions.
Part 2: Healthcare M&A in 2026: Beyond Dentistry
In part two, the conversation expands to other provider-led businesses, including veterinary, aesthetics, dermatology, and eyecare. We explore what’s driving interest from strategic buyers, the similarities and differences across sectors, and what practice owners should expect in 2026.
Part 3: Healthcare Business Services M&A in 2026
In the final episode, we turn to an increasingly important segment of the healthcare ecosystem: the businesses that support these practices. From IT, cybersecurity, marketing and other essential services, we examine why private equity continues to be drawn to this space, what drives value, and what the outlook looks like moving forward.
