Over the summer, I had the great delight of representing Dr. Yolanda Lowry (Wright) in the setup of her new private dental practice, Smile Center of Peoria, and the purchase of an existing dental practice and new physical location. Despite some last minute hurdles (from another side), we were able to handle all of the business transactions for the good doctor, properly put her business together and successfully negotiate the purchase of her new practice. Thrilled to see her business already taking off 🚀🚀🚀… All the best to Dr. Wright and her family as they embark on what is sure to be a successful practice and experience in the world of entrepreneurship.

… If you’re in Peoria (IL) or the
Central IL area and need quality dental services, go see her!

Now, not only does Mac run a successful Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym (https://www.topdawgbjj.com) but now he owns his business name: TOP DAWG BJJ
