CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Chicagoland Smile Group (CSG), a leading multisite dental practice group, today announced its continued expansion, welcoming Manus Dental to CSG’s network of affiliated dental practices. CSG provides practice management support and services to its partner locations, enabling dentists and dental specialists to focus on delivering the absolute best care and to collaborate with other practitioners across the network to better serve patients.
The addition of Manus’s Michigan Avenue, Hyde Park, Yorkville, and Lake Zurich offices brings Chicagoland Smile Group’s clinic count to 12, all accessible within 15 miles of anywhere in Chicagoland. This affiliation brings over 80 dentists, specialists, and staff to the CSG network, which added 92 new employees in 2016 and plans to make more than 100 hires this year.
CSG’s rapid expansion offers greater accessibility and more comprehensive dental care to communities throughout Chicagoland. This partnership follows three other recent practice affiliations: Metro Square Dental Associates and Deerpath Dental Specialists, both in Vernon Hills, in December of 2016, and Oradent Associates, in Chicago’s Lincolnwood neighborhood, in March of this year.
“All of CSG’s new partners are ideal complements to our practice network,” said Roger Murray, CEO of Chicagoland Smile Group. “The Manus affiliation expands the CSG network to four new communities, with state-of-the-art facilities, expert clinical teams, and a world-class continuing education program. Together, we will build on this growth and look for additional partnership opportunities to better serve patients throughout Chicago and the surrounding area.”
“While we had many options for a future partner, we chose Chicagoland Smile Group because they share our mission to provide excellent dental care, and given their Chicago focus and roots, they are best- positioned to provide superior operational practice support to our clinical teams,” said Dr. Daniel Dohnalek, one of Manus Dental’s partner owners.
As part of the combined venture, Manus operating partner Edgar “Skip” Heizer will join CSG’s Board of Directors. “An affiliation with Chicagoland Smile Group was the clear choice, based on our firm belief in the organization’s continued growth trajectory,” Heizer said.
Chicagoland Smile Group’s affiliated offices provide a full suite of dental services, including general and cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics, endodontics, periodontics, and oral surgery. CSG locations offer convenient evening and weekend hours, accept most PPO insurance plans, and are conveniently located throughout the Chicago metro area.
