Skye gets its teeth into third practice

Glasgow firm Skye Dental has acquired a third practice in the city as part of its plans to expand.

The firm bought the Partick Dental Clinic from a rival dentistry business thanks to a £140,000 funding package from Clydesdale Bank.

Director Brendan Murphy said: “This has been a real coup for us, and we could not have completed the deal without ongoing support from Clydesdale.”

Last year, Skye Dental and partner firm, McGregor Murphy and Rennie, reported a combined annual turnover of £2.3 million, and declared ambitions to increase that to £3m over the next three to five years.

McGregor Murphy and Rennie own an additional two dental practices.
