About the VPA Team

A trusted advisor in veterinary practice transactions for over 20 years

When we say we handle all aspects of buying, expanding, or selling your practice, we mean it: our team includes

A broker

with over 20 years of experience guiding veterinarians through purchases and sales.

An attorney

with expertise in small business acquisitions.

A network

who can provide advice on financing, taxes, and more.

Veterinary Practice Advisors has been brokering practice sales in Arizona and the Southwest for over 20 years. If you’re ready to sell your practice so that you can retire—or remain a working veterinarian but not a business owner—we’ll guide you through the process so it’s as easy for you as possible.

We also work with individual veterinarians who are looking to buy a clinic, as well as larger practice groups that are looking for practices to acquire.
