For optometry office owners
“I’d love to slow down but I don’t see any way out.”
My wife Mital and I buy optometry offices so you can retire and exit.
The problem you already know
“I’d love to slow down but I don’t see any way out. Everyone encourages me to stay on … then they tell me how much they enjoy their retirement.”
Michael Cohen, OD. Public interview. Not our seller.
“My practice is for sale but no serious offers.”
OD, 40+ years. Women in Optometry poll.
“Looking for a good courageous OD to assume the practice.”
OD, 40+ years. Same poll.
“I’ve spoken to a number of professional practice brokers, all of whom concur my gross revenue does not justify them getting involved.”
Cohen.
Selling to the younger doctors is “a great idea, and very tough to do.” Many OD-to-OD transfers mean you “personally finance the transition,” “with great risk to both sides.”
David A. Cockrell, O.D., AOA.
“Many younger ODs are not interested in business ownership, and that presents a challenge.”
OD poll.
“I felt I was abandoning my patients, staff and Marysville.”
Shimul Shah, OD.
“I did not want to rebrand. Chains come in and change the software and throw things into the office, and it is hard for staff.”
Alan Glazier, OD.
What we are offering
My wife Mital and I buy the office. You join a larger group of us. We are forming a national organization of optometry offices.
Owners who have taken a similar path have said they wanted to “remain in my practice and join something bigger.” One called it a “legacy exit” because “the practice name, vision and purpose is kept intact.”
Alan Glazier, OD, Review of Optometry. He sold to private equity. Not our seller.
Another owner, after a sale: “I found it quite liberating to see patients and go home. Once I left the office, work was behind me.”
Carol Record, OD, INVISION. She sold to MyEyeDr. Not our seller.
We buy the office. We do not promise the name stays, or that you keep seeing patients, unless that is in a deal we both sign.
Proof
The quotes above are public words from other optometrists. They are not our sellers. We do not have testimonials from offices we have bought.
How it works
- 1You already want to retire and exit. We are not talking you into selling.
- 2We talk. If it is a fit, Mital and I buy the office.
- 3You join a larger group of us.
- 4The offices together are meant to become a large national organization.
Whether you keep seeing patients, keep the name, or stay on for a handoff is not decided on this page. Owners often want that. We have not said what we offer.
Price
Mital and I buy the office. What we pay is not listed here. It has not been set in the offer.
What we pay is a conversation after we see the numbers. There is no price on this page.
