"I have used One Stop Business Finance to help me secure funding for my dream dental practice. Opening a dental practice can be daunting at times but having Andrew and Emma help me through the entire journey has certainly made it a lot easier for me. Having unbiased advice and being given several options but equally being guided on the best long-term options for me and my business has been priceless. I completely trust their judgment and thank them for their honest advice and guidance throughout a very stressful year. Without them, I would have not been able to open my practice. Additionally, their friendly and caring attitude meant we could have really open conversations about the future of the practice and they still keep in touch, often offering advice and further support if I need them. I cannot recommend them enough!!" |
