    Why Choose Guided Transitions?

    A More Strategic and Cost-Effective Approach to Transitioning Your Practice

    Our program presents a distinctive alternative to traditional brokerage services, catering to situations where buyers and sellers are already connected. It allows you to maintain control while benefiting from expert guidance throughout the transaction. Our flexible payment structure ensures that you only invest in services as we reach each milestone, safeguarding your resources while receiving expert guidance throughout the process.


    Understanding the Complexity

    Practice Transitions Are More Than Just a Transaction

    Many sellers perceive transitions as simple transactions, but the reality involves intricate legal, financial, and operational components. Truthfully, in major metropolitan areas finding a buyer can be the easiest part of the process but we like to use the analogy that after you find a buyer, you are only on first base. Getting a deal to close or ‘home plate’ is the difficult part of the process. Think of it this way – You have to get two doctors, two CPAs, two attorneys, two spouses, and one lender to all say: “YES”. This is easier said than done and where we come in to help let everyone know what is normal, customary, and fair to get the deal to the finish line.

    The Doctor’s Choice Difference

    Why Choose Guided Transitions Over Buyer-Sided Advisory Services?

    Unlike most flat-fee advisors who only represent the buyer, Guided Transitions provides balanced, expert-driven support for both buyers and sellers. Our structured approach ensures a fair, efficient, and seamless transition while eliminating common pitfalls that can derail a deal.

    Acting as a transaction broker for a Smoother Process

    Buyer-Sided Advisory focuses solely on the buyer, often leaving sellers without proper guidance. We act as a transaction broker, ensuring fair negotiations and a transparent process for both parties.

    A Structured, Step-by-Step Roadmap

    Many advisors offer limited services, leaving buyers and sellers to navigate key steps alone. We provide a comprehensive transition strategy, guiding both parties from initial evaluation to closing due to having over 35 years of experience in the space.

    A Practice Evaluation is Included in Our Fee

    Most buyer-sided representation services do not include a full practice evaluation. With a Guided Transition, we conduct a detailed financial and operational analysis as part of our process and fee.

    Cost-Effective with a Flexible Payment Structure

    Instead of requiring large upfront fees, we structure our payments based on key milestones. The initial payment for our service is close to the amount you’d pay elsewhere just for an evaluation, making it a smarter and more valuable investment.

    End-to-End Support, Not Just Buyer Advocacy

    We coordinate with lenders, attorneys, landlords, and all necessary parties to ensure the entire transaction is structured for success.

    Expertise in Lease & Real Estate Considerations

    We work directly with landlords to assist with lease transfers, renewals, or new agreements. If real estate is involved and being sold, we will conduct an opinion of value and help ensure the transaction is structured properly to align with financing and long-term practice goals.
