The Complete Guide to Selling Your Concierge Health Practice
Here’s a step-by-step overview of the journey ahead:
Step 1: Evaluate Your Options
Selling your practice is a major decision. Some key questions to consider:
What is your timeline?
Planning to retire in 1–3 years? Looking to reduce your administrative burden? Do you want to continue seeing patients and helping the practice to grow? The earlier you begin, the more options you’ll have.
What’s happening in the market?
Concierge medicine is increasingly attractive to investors and consolidators, particularly practices with strong recurring revenue, multiple physicians and/or locations, and growth potential.
Why Sell Now?
- Attractive Multiples and a seller's market: Many practices sell for 6–10x EBITDA or higher.
- Operational Relief: Many buyers bring staffing and administrative resources.
- More Time for Medicine: A sale can let you focus purely on care—or scale back hours.
- Long-Term Financial Security: A sale unlocks wealth and creates new professional opportunities.
An important first step is getting a realistic valuation range for your business. This often signals for owners a good time to sell, or holding off to increase value through strategic growth initiatives. We are happy to provide a high level valuation range for your business - get in touch with Hannah Huke, Senior Advisor for Concierge Medicine, hannah@evergreenforfounders.
Step 2: Build Your All-Star Team
To navigate the sale smoothly, you’ll want the right team:
- M&A Advisor: An experienced advisor can set realistic value expectations, put you in touch with buyers that fit your vision and culture, negotiate throughout the process, keep every detail in check, and see you through to a successful close. The founders we work with see a significant increase in offer amounts and are able to focus on continuing to grow their business while we handle the entire process.
- M&A Attorney: We recommend hiring an attorney with M&A experience, who is familiar with the specific type of contracts and negotiate legal terms - this will keep the deal on schedule as the old adage that "time kills all deals" is very true!
- Wealth Advisor: They can help to manage and protect the proceeds from your sale with smart tax and investment planning.
Step 3: Prepare for Peak Performance
We’ll help you get your practice into top shape to attract the best offers:
Financial Prep: We organize your P&Ls, model your EBITDA, and highlight recurring revenue.
Operational Efficiency: We help identify improvements that could increase your bottom line.
First Impressions: From office upgrades to brand presentation, we help you shine for potential buyers.
Step 4: Match You with the Ideal Buyer
Finding the right buyer is essential for a smooth transition and long-term success. Here’s how we help:
Targeted Introductions: We focus on a select group of serious, qualified buyers who share your values and respect your patient-centered model.
In-Depth Vetting: We review buyers’ operational history, growth strategy, and cultural fit.
Offer Review: We walk you through each offer, helping you weigh compensation, structure, and future involvement.
Deal Negotiation: Our team negotiates every term to maximize your outcome.
Ultimately, we help you find a buyer who values your legacy—and pays accordingly.
Step 5: Seal the Deal with Confidence
We handle the closing process from A to Z:
Offer Review & Selection: We collaborate with you and your legal team to choose the best offer.
Organized Execution: We build the data room, coordinate with all parties, and move through diligence with care.
Integration Planning: We work with you and the buyer to build a seamless handoff for patients and staff.
Ongoing Support: We stay involved through closing and post-sale transitions.
