Steering Parkview into New Waters
Every now and then, a company gets a leader who feels like a tailor-made fit for its ambitions. Parkview Dental Partners just scored big with Jon Gregoire taking the helm as CEO. Gregoire, a seasoned DSO bigwig with a knack for M&A, is set to power up the gears for Parkview’s next growth spurt. We're talking about a guy who knows the ins and outs of dental services like no one else.
Gregoire's Track Record
Here's the scoop on Gregoire: he’s no rookie in the dental service organization (DSO) arena. With over two decades under his belt, this guy has done it all—clinic-level operations, entrepreneurship, and a stack of mergers and acquisitions. Back in 2018, he co-founded Cornerstone Dental Partners, growing it to a respectable ten locations before it got snapped up by P1 Dental Partners in 2021. He isn’t just someone who talks a big game; he’s walked the path, shaping and scaling dental practices from the ground up.
"His combination of operating discipline, entrepreneurial experience, and M&A expertise makes him the right leader for Parkview's next chapter." — Mark Woods, Cathay Capital
Setting Up Camp at Parkview
Parkview’s decision to bring Gregoire on board wasn't just about his impressive resume. The mission is clear as day: expand operations while keeping a tight grip on clinical excellence and top-notch patient experiences. Parkview, backed by financial powerhouse Cathay Capital, is betting big on growth through organic means and strategic acquisitions, just like Gregoire's style.
The Gulf Coast Focus
With its roots deep in Sarasota, Florida, Parkview isn’t just another faceless corporation. It taps into the local market nuances while maintaining a high standard of care—a dentist-founded growth strategy that decidedly sets itself apart. For Gregoire, it’s all about strengthening Parkview’s footing along the Gulf Coast, fostering a culture that favors the patient-first approach over anything else.

Parkview doesn’t just want to ripple the waters; they aim to make waves in the dental service landscape, and they've sure got the ammo to do it.
