Synopsis
Aimed at helping veterinarians with buying or selling a practice, the book was written and edited by two veterinary practice experts at Simmons & Associates who have gathered and documented many issues facing veterinarians today. With collected case studies from 29 years in the making, these experts have collected comprehensive information to veterinary practice sales, purchases and mergers. For decades, veterinarians have been buying and selling practices without a comprehensive guide. Veterinarians have often relied on friends and outside professionals with critical choices in business. With this new book, veterinarians can rely on proven information and helpful tips when looking to sell to an associate, buy a new practice or simply retire. The book explores important questions like, "What type of practice do you want to buy and what is your current financial situation?" and "What is your management style and what is most important to you when selling your practice?"
