We are unique in the fact that our broker of record, Ralph Santos, comes to the table with real-world business experience as well as his clinical background as an Occupational Therapist. This is the difference-maker for Healthcare Biz Brokers. We are able to take your sale or your acquisition to the next level by guiding you with your pre-initial meeting due diligence, your actual first meeting strategies, your actual due diligence, your transition strategy, your post-sale tasks, and your exit strategy. We can speak the language of business and the language of medicine, which creates the perfect balance for our respective clients. Our perspective when it comes to our clients is to create a trusting relationship where you know that we are on your side.

We take the time to understand your specific business model and thereafter dissect your business to help your potential buyers see your goodwill and their bottom line. We seek to help our buyers understand the purchase/sale process which would include having a clear understanding of the specific business type and also understanding what you will need in order to succeed in the industry. If you find that you have questions about a particular healthcare business, we are more than happy to help you understand what will make sense to you in your particular situation. If you are thinking about divesting or selling your company, call us to discuss your options. We come to our clients with years of experience and a strong desire to see you succeed in your business sale/acquisition.
