I recently engaged Simon Palmer for the sale of my practice. Simon used his knowledge of this process to make it all go so smoothly. His ability to bring both parties together was so comforting. Really, without Simon this process of selling my practice would not have been possible. The sale was certainly easy, straight forward and speedy. This is the only way to go through this phase of your practicing life.
I have owned and run my practice for 35 continuous years. As I turned 60, I felt it was necessary to engage a younger, highly motivated dentist in the running of the business. I was happy to continue working in the practice however.
The problem was how to achieve this change-over. Solution : Kevin from Practice Sale Search. Kevin and I met playing golf and he suggested I list my practice with Practice Sale Search. Within a very short period of time we had over 50 interested parties. The sale was handled in a very professional and stress-free manner. I highly recommend Kevin and the team at Practice Sale Search if you have designs on selling your dental practice.
My experience with Simon and the team at Practice Sales Search could not have been better. With an enormous wealth of industry experience and contacts throughout Australia he connected me with multiple potential purchasers for my practice with great efficiency. Simon created the necessary competitive tension to ensure that the sale didn't stall, and a highly satisfactory sale price was achieved. I felt that I was guided through the whole process with insightful, frank advice at all times. Everything worked seamlessly and there was always a sense that Simon held my best interests foremost, rather than just chasing a quick sale.
Simon found a suitable buyer quickly and without interrupting the surgery routine, and helped steer all parties involved in the complicated sale with patience and persistence. Simon’s expertise made the sale process much less stressful than I anticipated, and I would confidently recommend him to any colleagues looking to sell their practice
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you Simon,Kevin and your staff for your help, advice, hard work and negotiations on the sale of both of my practices. I know that it was a difficult and somewhat individual circumstance and was a challenge to you all.
Dealing with Kevin was a professional and smooth experience that I was very impressed with. All issues that arose during the sale were dealt with quickly and without fuss. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to others
Without Kevin to help me, the sale of my practice would have been far more difficult, and I don't think that I could have reached as many prospective buyers as we did. He really helped me and the purchaser to feel comfortable about the preparation, negotiations and processes involved in the sale. I would highly recommend Practice Sale Search to anyone who is either selling or buying a practice.
Thank you for your work in facilitating the sale and if the opportunity arises I will certainly recommend your services to interested colleagues.
Thanks for helping us to find the practice. It is going really well for us. Marek (the vendor) is a great person as well as great dentist. Very supportive to us clinically as well as practice management wise. He is a very humble guy who want us to succeed as well. I am really thankful to you for introducing us to this practice to buy.
When a change in circumstances necessitated me selling my practice, I knew it was something I needed expert help with. It is too big an asset to make a mistake, and it was something I had never done before. I researched several dental practice brokers with varying services and fees. I was aware that Practice Sale Search and Simon Palmer was a recognised leader in this area, with a great reputation, and had read several testimonials on the website explaining his capabilities.
I found the PSS website’s appearance clear and professional and it was easy to navigate. When I contacted PSS, the service was immediately prompt and efficient. I felt reassured that I was in good, experienced hands. Simon brought us several interested parties very quickly.
Due to the partnership arrangement within my practice and its rural location, a sale was always going to be complicated. Partners understandably have differing priorities, values and circumstances, which have the potential to cause conflict if not well managed.
There’s no denying, the process of selling is arduous, stressful and meandering, but Simon kept us on track. He was always available by phone for impartial and honest advice, and he was able to remove the emotional aspect that we naturally have as owners from the discussion.
When a deal was imminent, he directed us to a selection of several expert legal people with experience in this niche field. The solicitor we chose was highly skilled and successfully guided us through a complicated matter also involving a lease, to a mutually beneficial and fair agreement for all parties.
I know that without guidance the potential for disaster and disappointment was looming. With professional help, I managed to avoid the pitfalls, have maintained my good relationship with my business partner and I am now able to start the new phase of my life with my family, feeling satisfied with the result.
Thank you Simon for selling my practice.
