Planning to Sell Your Plastic Surgery Practice

Selling your plastic surgery practice is a big decision, and it’s important to be prepared. Most experts recommend starting to plan for the sale of your practice at least 5 years before you actually want to transition. Starting early will also give you more time to find the right buyer for your practice. A good buyer will be someone who is a good fit for your practice and who will continue to provide excellent care to your patients. We work with individual plastic surgeons and groups that are seeking to buy practice; as well as, private equity firms that are purchasing plastic surgery practices.

Here are the key steps you should take:

1. Know your motivations:

  • Why are you selling your practice?
  • What are your goals for the sale?
  • Are you looking to retire, change careers, or pursue other interests?
  • Tired of managing your practice?

2. Determine the value of your practice:

  • This is often the most difficult step.
  • There are a number of factors that can affect the value of your practice, such as your location, patient base, reputation, and financial performance.

3. Get your financial records in order:

  • This will make it easier for potential buyers to assess the value of your practice.
  • You should have at least three years of financial statements, including income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements.

4. Assemble a team of advisors:

  • You should work with your lawyer, and accountant.
  • They can provide you with expert advice on the law and your numbers.

5. Market your practice:

  • Get the word out that you are selling your practice to a wide audience.

6. Negotiate with potential buyers:

  • Once you have received offers from potential buyers, you will need to negotiate the terms of the sale.
  • This includes the purchase price, the closing date, and any contingencies.

7. Close the deal:

  • Once you have reached an agreement with a buyer, you will need to close the deal.
  • This will involve signing a purchase agreement and transferring ownership of the practice.

8. Transition your patients:

  • You will need to work with the buyer to ensure that your patients are transitioned smoothly to the new practice.
  • This includes providing them with information about the new practice and their new doctor.
