Long
before the advent of large, public Physician Practice
Management Companies, ophthalmologists and other
surgical specialists joined into larger groups
to gain market clout, share costs, diversify services
and improve provider lifestyles. In ophthalmology,
the additional drivers include: joint surgical
and laser facilities, succession planning for
the most senior doctors, brand consolidation and
satellite development.
Successful
optometric and ophthalmic practice merger and
acquisition has significant interpersonal, political,
accounting and regulatory hurdles. We coach prospective
merger partners through the broad issues first,
and then coordinate and properly stage each successive
element of the advisory team.
