We Speak Practice
Vitalis Practice CPAs was founded in 2007 to serve one kind of client exceptionally well: the medical and dental practice. A practice isn't just a small business — it's a unique financial animal, with its own tax opportunities, retirement-plan strategies, overhead benchmarks, and transition dynamics that a generalist CPA rarely masters.
We serve physicians and dentists exclusively. That focus means we've worked inside 600+ practices, we know exactly what your numbers should look like, and we bring benchmarks and strategy no general firm can. Whether you're an associate buying in, an owner planning your exit, or a doctor who just wants more take-home pay and less tax stress, we're the CPAs who already understand your world.

The Practice-Specialist Difference
A generalist files your return. A practice specialist grows your practice.
We Know Your Numbers
Because we live in practice finance, we know what your overhead, production, and profit should be — and how to get there.
More In Your Pocket
Entity structure, retirement plans, and tax planning tailored to high-income doctors keep far more of your earnings.
Transitions Done Right
Acquisitions, sales, and associate buy-ins are where practices win or lose big. We structure them to protect you.
A True Financial Partner
Monthly clarity, peer benchmarks, and proactive advice — like a healthcare-savvy CFO in your corner year-round.
Trusted by Columbus Practices
Vitalis restructured my dental practice as an S-Corp and set up a retirement plan that cut my tax bill by over $40K a year. They understand a practice's finances better than anyone I've worked with.
When I bought my practice, Vitalis handled the valuation, the financing package, and the transition. Their practice benchmarks showed me exactly where I could improve profitability from day one.
Bringing on an associate with a buy-in path was complicated until Vitalis structured it. Clean, fair, and tax-smart for both of us. They think like practice owners because they serve so many.
Monthly financials I actually understand, benchmarked against other practices, plus proactive tax planning. Vitalis feels like having a CFO who happens to specialize in healthcare. Invaluable.
Know Exactly Where You Stand
Most practice owners have no idea whether their overhead, staffing, or production is healthy — because they've never seen the numbers of comparable practices. We have, from 600+ of them. We benchmark your practice against peers on the metrics that matter, then show you precisely where you're leaving money on the table and how to fix it. It's the difference between guessing and knowing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work with both medical and dental practices?
Yes. We serve physicians, dentists, and specialty practices exclusively — from solo practitioners to multi-provider groups. That healthcare focus is exactly what lets us bring benchmarks and strategy a generalist firm can't.
How can a specialist CPA increase my take-home pay?
High-income doctors have powerful, practice-specific levers: the right entity structure, an optimized retirement plan (often a defined-benefit or cash-balance plan), equipment depreciation timing, and proactive tax planning. Used together, these routinely save practice owners tens of thousands a year — far more than our fee.
I'm thinking of buying a practice. Can you help?
Absolutely — it's one of our specialties. We value the practice, analyze the financials, help structure the financing, and manage the transition, so you buy at the right price and start profitable from day one.
What is practice benchmarking?
It's comparing your practice's key metrics — overhead percentage, production per provider, staffing costs, profitability — against comparable practices. Because we serve 600+, we can show you exactly how you stack up and where the opportunity is. Most owners have never seen this, and it's eye-opening.
Can you help me bring on an associate or partner?
Yes. Associate compensation, buy-in structures, and partnership transitions are complex and emotionally charged. We structure them to be fair, tax-smart, and clean for everyone involved, so relationships and finances both stay healthy.
How are your fees structured?
Most practices are on a flat monthly fee that covers accounting, tax, and advisory, scoped to your size and needs. Projects like a valuation or acquisition are quoted separately. Your initial practice review is free, and we're transparent about pricing up front.
