Testimonials

Simon Palmer and Practice Sale Search are the best team for buying a practice in Australia. Simon is not only great at selling practices, but he knows what practice suits you as well. I bought two practices in QLD and highly recommend Practice Sale Search to all dental professionals.

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. 

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank Kevin and the Practice Sale Search team for helping us through our recent acquisition of a neighbouring dental practice. The sale was complicated by a number of factors; however, you guys were great and made the process as seamless as possible.

Kevin was always ready to help and very prompt at getting all the information I requested back to me.  I have no problem recommending your services to any busy professional and would 100% utilise your services again if ever selling or buying another dental practice.

Thank you for your work in facilitating the sale and if the opportunity arises I will certainly recommend your services to interested colleagues.

I have had the pleasure to work with Simon and Kevin, and found them to be highly knowledgeable and very professional.
I had been looking for a dental clinic for the past few years, during which time the team helped me with the inspections and further information.
When I found the one that I was interested in, Kevin helped me out with everything that was involved. He was very helpful, very motivating and went to great lengths to make the purchase easier and a positive experience. Had it not been for Kevin’s help, I would not have been able to achieve my goal of purchasing my very first clinic. There is no looking back from here.

I have had the fortunate pleasure of working with Simon Palmer and his professional team again. Buying a dental practice is never easy and there are so many small stresses. I am just very grateful for the time and effort Simon & his team went to in order to make my purchase a positive experience! Look forward to working with them again.

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.

I have been working with Practice Sale Search for a number of years as a buyer. All my dealings have always been handled extremely professionally and honestly. I recently bought a practice in NSW and have to say that Kevin went the extra mile to assist me with this purchase. Nothing was ever to much to ask and queries and questions were handled promptly by Kevin. Highly recommended.

I recently engaged Practice Sale Search to look after the sale of my long-established dental practice. Confidence for this decision was achieved after attending a day-long presentation by Simon Palmer, held at the ADA offices. What was not made apparent on this occasion was not just the level of this man's experience in facilitating these sales, but his tenacity in ensuring that this undertaking proceeded to a happy conclusion for all concerned. You really need someone focused on the project, because there can be many other personalities involved, apart from the buyer and the seller.

In addition to buyer and seller engaging their own solicitors, there could  be a landlord' s solicitor and a couple of accountants, a banker, a local government contact and the odd business advisor, all with their own timelines (including going on holidays part-way through the sale). With so many people involved, all with varying levels of experience in these matters, I came to understand just how crucial it was to have a broker who was dedicated to ensuring the sale did not lose momentum. I cannot emphasise this point enough. It is one thing having your practice appraised and approving an advertising program, but these aspects pale into insignificance compared to the diligence that may be required along the way by the broker, to conclude the sale. I did not know that at the time, when I agreed to allow Simon to look after my sale, but I am very grateful for his experience in these matters and am most  impressed with his  diligence.

It's great to now be able to relax and remain working in the practice part time and enjoy the patients and dentistry, without the stress of managing it as well.
