Business
What is it like to suddenly become a business owner? We asked that question of Johanna Lopez, DDS, who recently bought an existing dental practice in Hendersonville, NC. Johanna has been a dentist for four years and as of September, is also now a new business owner. As part of our continuing series, we learn about her background (from El Salvador), history, and why she chose dentistry. Johanna tells us about the process of buying a business; the challenges, surprises and what advice she would give to others who are considering buying an existing business.
