Building a Dental Practice from the Ground Up
The Story of Machias Dental’s New Headquarters Continues
Building a practice from the ground up is no easy task - something that Dr. Sparaga and his wife, Kathy, know quite well. (Read about their plans for a new dental practice building, the finances of construction, and my latest update on their progress.)

Construction moves along briskly, but not without hiccups. Rains pour down. The hole that marks where the building will stand slowly fills with water. Mud is everywhere. Fortunately, the foundation has already been laid.
When they realize that their dental practice design firm didn’t actually think through all of the details of construction, Kathy Sparaga holds weekly meetings with the contractor and subs. It’s a tremendous amount of work, but what else can they do? The Sparagas know they need to put in the effort if they’re to have the practice of their dreams.
Check back next week for another update!
