Dr. Janice Luke, Licensed Sales Associate Dr. Janice Luke brings something rare to practice transitions: she's lived both sides of the equation. As a licensed dentist with over 26 years of clinical experience who unexpectedly transitioned out of practice herself, she understands the emotional weight, business complexity, and personal significance of buying or selling a practice. Her approach is driven by passion and purpose, not just commission. She does this work to help doctors prepare for whatever life brings, build practices that run like well-oiled machines, and find buyers who will honor their legacy and care for their patients the way they did. What sets Dr. Luke apart is her commitment to honesty and integrity, the same principles that guided her clinical practice. She tells clients the good, the bad, and the ugly because real trust requires transparency. Background & Credentials Dr. Luke graduated from the University of Michigan School of Dentistry and completed a General Practice Residency program through the University of Miami School of Medicine at Jackson Memorial Hospital. Her clinical career spanned over 26 years in restorative dentistry, and her professional involvement included serving as a past member of the Florida Board of Dentistry, advanced affiliations with Spear, ITI and several study clubs. From Practitioner to Advocate That personal experience of transitioning out of practice taught Dr. Luke she could give back to dentistry by helping other doctors prepare for the unexpected and build practices that don't just survive transitions but thrive through them. She's also a passionate advocate for women in business and believes ownership is especially important for women who want both careers and families, as being the owner means dictating your own terms and building the life you want while reaping the benefits of ownership. Building Trust Through Honesty Dr. Luke builds trust by being honest and open about everything, which means telling people what they need to hear, not just what they want to hear. If someone doesn't like her honesty or won't represent their practice honestly to her, she can't work with them. That standard protects everyone involved. She understands that the highest offer isn't always the best buyer. For doctors with quality practices and specific expertise in areas like comprehensive cosmetics or advanced restorative work, finding a buyer with similar skill sets and philosophy matters more than the number. Her focus on finding the right fit reflects her understanding of all the emotions involved in transitions. She helps doctors make sound business decisions rather than emotional ones, ensuring their legacy lives on and they feel good about their incoming doctor. Success on both sides, sellers exiting confidently and buyers stepping into the right practice, is what makes her work rewarding. Life Beyond Dentistry Dr. Luke is an avid fitness enthusiast who enjoys hiking and travel, biking, kayaking, and plays tennis regularly. She's been a lifelong angler, starting when she was very young, and enjoys fly fishing in Colorado and tuna trolling in the Bahamas. She's also a dedicated skier who hits the slopes in Colorado. Her creative outlet is her art studio, where she's currently focused on creating mosaics and painting. She has a daughter that is a UF grad currently attending Wayne State University School of Medicine. Ready to Move Forward? Dr. Luke's unique perspective as someone who has been both a successful practice owner and a transition client gives her insights that few brokers can offer. Her commitment to honesty, passion for helping doctors succeed, and understanding of the emotional journey make her an invaluable advisor during one of the most significant decisions of your career. Whether you're preparing to exit and want to ensure your legacy continues or you're ready to become a first-time owner, Dr. Luke brings the expertise, integrity, and genuine care that make complex transitions feel manageable. Her approach ensures that both sides of every transaction experience success, with sellers exiting confidently and buyers stepping into practices that truly fit their skills and philosophy.
