Whether you own a small animal clinic, a mixed animal practice, or an emergency hospital, we connect you with brokers who understand practice metrics, staffing, and real estate.
Selling a veterinary clinic involves valuing tangible assets (medical equipment, real estate) and intangible assets (patient list, community reputation). Buyers are looking for stable cash flow and a smooth transition of care.
We start by analyzing your practice type: Small animal vs. large animal vs. mixed. Do you offer boarding or grooming? Is the real estate included?
From there, we identify business brokers who specialize in veterinary practice sales. Some focus on selling to individual DVMs, while others have relationships with the many corporate consolidators currently active in the market. We help you find the right fit for your goals.
• Profitability (EBITDA) – Strong, consistent earnings are the primary driver of valuation multiples.
• Staff Retention – A loyal team of associate vets, vet techs, and support staff is critical, especially given the current shortage of veterinary professionals.
• Equipment & Facility – Modern diagnostic equipment (digital x-ray, ultrasound, in-house lab) and a well-maintained facility add significant value.
• Growth Potential – Room to expand hours, add services, or hire more providers makes the practice more attractive to investors.
Selling a veterinary practice requires organized financial records, up-to-date inventory, and a plan for transition.
Veterinary practices are often valued on a multiple of EBITDA. Buyers also look at "production" metrics for each veterinarian to assess the practice's efficiency.
We work with business brokers who will help you "recast" your financials to show the true profitability of the clinic, normalizing owner compensation and one-time expenses.
You don't want staff or clients to worry about a change in ownership until the deal is finalized.
Our partner brokers use blind listings and strict NDAs to market your practice discreetly. This protects your team and client base during the negotiation process.
