SELLING YOUR PRACTICES
Selling your veterinary practice isn’t just professional—it’s personal, too.
You’ve worked for years—even decades—to build your practice. But even when you know that you’re ready to move on, the prospect of selling is daunting.
Many clinic owners find themselves asking questions like…
How am I supposed to figure out exactly what my practice is worth…and then find a qualified buyer who’s prepared to pay that?
How can I find a buyer who shares my values, so that I know my clients and patients are in good hands when I step away?
How do I handle a complex transaction like this—and keep up with the day-to-day demands of a working vet clinic?
I’ve been approached by a corporate buyer—how do I know that their valuation of my practice is fair?

How It Works
Step 1
Assessing Your Practice
We’ll look at the financials of your practice to see how profitable it is and determine the value of your assets.
Then we combine that with our first-hand knowledge of the local market to provide you with an easy-to-understand estimate of how marketable it’s going to be—and to whom. is your clinic a good fit for a corporate buyer? Or will it be more attractive to individual buyers?
Step 2
Locating a Buyer
Based on our initial assessment, we’ll prepare an info sheet and approach potential buyers. We’ve got a sizeable network of both corporate buyers and individuals looking to acquire a clinic.
Once your practice is listed and offers start to come in, we’ll help you understand the pros and cons of each and make an informed decision.
Our goal is to match you with a buyer who shares your values and will continue to provide the same quality of care for your clients and patients.
Step 3
Sale & Transition
After you accept an offer, we step in to handle the legal aspects of the sale, from physical assets to staffing.
We’re here every step of the way to ensure a seamless transition to new ownership.
