Veterinary Practice Buyers and Brokers

Here is a list of the veterinary buyers that I believe will give you a great price for your practice and most importantly, be great to work with after the sale.

Blue River Pet Care

I met Blue River about 3 or 4 years ago when they asked me to do education for some of their practices at a national meeting.  I will never forget how happy all the veterinarians and other practice leaders were at that event.  Since then, I’ve done two additional meetings for their group, and every time I interact with their hospitals, I find their employees to be happy and thriving. Those that work in their main office in Chicago are also incredibly nice, ethical and personable.  Blue River’s ideal practice employs at least 2.5 veterinarians and grosses 1.2 million or more in annual revenue.  You can use the link below to reach out to Gene Bauer and set up a time to talk.

National Veterinary Associates (NVA)

Continuing education also catalyzed my first meeting with the management team and veterinary professionals of NVA. Every time I have lectured at one of their meetings, I have been awestruck by how happy everyone is and by the tremendous amount of financial, educational, and back office support that NVA provides its practice members. Their leadership team articulates their commitment to team welfare, work-life balance, and respect in everything that they say and do.  Every time I work with them, they make me feel welcomed and respected and I’m happy to call many of their veterinary professionals and support staff workers my friends.

Veterinary Sales Partners

Lisa Zola, a colleague that I’ve known for 20 years, has firsthand knowledge of how challenging it can be to try to sift through all the buy offers that are in front of today’s successful veterinary practice owner.  Though she continues to manage the practice that she sold 2 years ago, she decided to form a company that assists veterinarian-owners with finding the best buyer for their practice for the best price.

She and her partners have analyzed over 30 different veterinary buyers; they know the objectives, risks, and financial benefits of each. They can help you assemble all the financial information you need, help you to understand all offers, negotiate the best sales price for your practice, and stay with through the entire sales process.  Whether you’re ready to sell today, or a few years from now, connecting with them is an essential first step to the best possible outcome.
