The Forge Story
As owners of one of the most successful and respected specialty practices in the Southeast, our founders were approached for affiliation by several private equity-backed DSOs.
None of these DSOs had a flexible or tailored approach that made sense to them for many reasons. Being true entrepreneurs, and seeing a need in the marketplace, they decided to Forge their own path and start a DSO that truly understands the demands of every day practice management from a clinical perspective, and respects the position of owners to affect change within their own practice.
We know that no two practices are alike, so we created our own, flexible partnership model.
Our model allows our clinical leaders to:
Maintain their identity.
Continue to own and lead their practices while receiving the benefits of private ownership.
Capitalize on the support they want, on their own terms.
What Forge Does
Forge provides a comprehensive slate of administrative and operational support and expertise to allow you to achieve a balance between your work and life.
We are different and it will be apparent to you from the moment we connect.
As a clinician led group, we have an unparalleled respect and understanding of the burdens and pressures that come from being chair side with patients all day and moonlighting as a businessperson after hours.
Our specialists are the leaders and drivers of their practices.
Forge uniquely recognizes the benefit of specialist experience and perspective, by having our leaders maintain ownership and a continuing equity stake in their practice as a part of affiliation. This gives our partners the ability to maximize the value they receive from their practice and ensures ongoing participation in the success Forge.
