Our Story

Dr. Uhland’s journey began in the operatory, where he experienced firsthand the complexities of running a successful practice.

Over time, he recognized a growing need among dentists for specialized guidance when it came to practice transitions and strategic decisions. Armed with clinical experience and a real estate license, he launched Lakeshore Dental Brokers to bridge that gap for fellow dental professionals.

Today, our boutique firm is committed to delivering transparent, personalized, and results-driven brokerage services. We’ve helped hundreds of dentists across the Midwest maximize their practice value and set the stage for long-term success—ensuring their patients continue to receive the highest standard of care.
