Testimonials

It’s important to know what others think about working with Strategic Medical Brokers. Check out the testimonials below from many of our wonderful clients. At Strategic Medical Brokers, your story is what really matters.

I am pleased to provide my highest recommendation for Strategic Medical Brokers, particularly Kathy Mannino, Director of Operations and Business Broker. Kathy recently guided the successful sale of my medical practice, and her expertise, professionalism, and dedication were instrumental throughout the entire process.

The sale involved numerous financial, legal, and operational complexities that required constant attention to detail. Kathy demonstrated exceptional organization and diligence, coordinating every aspect of the transaction while ensuring that all parties remained informed and on schedule. She skillfully managed multiple revisions to the settlement statements as vendor balances and loan payoff amounts changed, incorporating adjustments from multiple vendors while also coordinating with my bank and the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA).

When unexpected accounting and disbursement discrepancies arose regarding earnest money deposits, Kathy immediately stepped in to advocate on my behalf. She worked collaboratively with the lending institution to reconcile the discrepancies, protect my interests, and keep the transaction moving forward.

Perhaps most impressive was Kathy’s ability to remain calm, responsive, and solution-oriented despite numerous timeline changes and unexpected challenges. She maintained outstanding communication with all stakeholders, coordinated the execution of critical closing documents, and consistently demonstrated a commitment to achieving a successful outcome.

Kathy’s knowledge, attention to detail, integrity, and unwavering dedication made what could have been an overwhelming process far more manageable. I am sincerely grateful for her guidance and highly recommend both Kathy Mannino and Strategic Medical Brokers to any healthcare professional considering the purchase or sale of a medical practice.

I engaged Strategic Medical Brokers to help me retire from an almost 30-year cash-based solo private practice in cosmetic and general dermatology in a regional trade market of around 500,000 people within a 300-mile service area.
Recruitment for a new dermatologist, whether for a partnership or a purchase, was challenging because of the location, the general shortage of dermatologists, and the trend among younger dermatologists toward an employment-based practice model rather than a self-employed model.
I chose SMB because of its proven track record of successfully selling practices of various specialties and various practice models.
Although the process took 14 months due to my specific situation, the need to provide data to SMB to justify the practice’s valuation to buyers, and some tough negotiations with potential buyers, I am very satisfied with the results.
Shaun, Marta, Kathy, and Vanessa were diligent, honest about the challenges involved, gave me a realistic valuation based on market conditions, and screened potential buyers who were or were not a good fit. They guided me through the process with experience, tact, and grace. I always felt they were in my corner, represented my best interests, understood my loyalty to my staff and patients, and my desire to leave both in good hands. They made sure the contract negotiations and closing proceeded and followed up afterward to ensure everything was going according to plan. Their sales commission was reasonable, especially for the amount of work they put in. I retired from my practice with debts paid off, and some to spare.
Those of us who have been on both sides of the physician recommendation letter process will understand me when I say, “I highly recommend Strategic Medical Brokers, without reservation.” They earned my confidence, and I would recommend them without hesitation

Working with Strategic Medical Brokers made the process of selling my practice far smoother than I expected. Shaun and his team were professional, responsive, and guided me through each step of the transaction. I was especially grateful for the care they took in vetting buyers and helping find the right person to take over my practice and continue serving the patients I’ve cared for over the years. Their experience and steady communication helped keep everything on track, and I felt well supported throughout the entire process.

As we approached the final stages, the entire team brought a calming, steady presence that made what could have been a stressful time feel completely manageable. Their coordination and attention to detail ensured a seamless closing, and the transition could not have gone more smoothly.

Working with Strategic Medical Brokers has been an exceptional experience. My wife, Penny, and I are incredibly grateful to Shaun, Marta, Kathy and Vanessa, and the entire team for their guidance and support throughout the process. Their expertise, professionalism, and dedication made a complex transaction feel seamless.

What stands out most is the far-reaching impact of their work – not only on us, but on the thousands of patients and individuals connected to Ohio Health Center who will continue to benefit from this transition. It is difficult to believe that after signing our contract with Strategic Medical Brokers in Mid-October 2025 our practice was sold in 5 short months. The selling price far exceeded our wildest dreams. Since Shaun handled all the negotiations this transaction was essentially stress free.

Shaun and Kathy repeatedly demonstrated their skills navigating this transaction and interfacing with the seller and the buyer. Their advice was spot on. Choosing a broker to sell your practice borders on being a leap of faith. After working with Strategic Medical Brokers, I have earnestly and wholeheartedly recommended my colleagues to Shaun and his team.

To any prospective clients, you will not be disappointed if you choose Strategic Medical Brokers. Penny and I extend our deepest and most sincere thanks to Strategic Medical Brokers for helping us realize our freedom, retirement, and commencing the next chapter in our journey.

Having worked with a number of brokers over the years, we can confidently say it was an excellent experience working with Strategic Medical Brokers. From our initial outreach to closing on this very complex transaction, the process was collaborative, professional, and well-handled. Communication was clear, expectations were aligned, and we truly felt like we were working together toward the same goal. We genuinely appreciate all the effort and expertise involved, and we couldn’t have asked for a better broker team in this process.

Peterson Legacy Group (PLG)​

We had an excellent experience working with Strategic Medical Brokers during the sale of our medical practice. From start to finish, their team was knowledgeable, responsive, and deeply familiar with the nuances of medical practice transactions. Their team of Shaun, Kathy, and Vanessa provided the most professional experience anyone could ask for during this challenging process.
They guided us through valuation, positioning, buyer outreach, and negotiations with clarity and professionalism, ensuring we understood every step of the process. They helped us every step of the way through the due diligence process (couldn’t have made it through this part without them). Their attention to detail and ability to anticipate issues made a complex transaction feel organized and manageable.
Most importantly, they advocated strongly for our interests and helped us achieve a successful outcome that aligned with both our financial and operational goals. There are always difficult conversations with buyers and SMB always put our interests first. For me personally, the best part of the process was matching our practice with the best possible buyers that were the best fit. Other brokerages are likely to want to get the transaction closed as quickly as possible, no matter who the buyer is. But this company truly cares and makes you feel like you are the only practice they are working with. If you’re considering selling or transitioning a medical practice, I highly recommend Strategic Medical Brokers. They truly deliver expertise you can trust. We could have never done this process on our own. Shaun, you and your team are amazing people and I will be forever grateful to you and your team!

Strategic Medical Brokers was instrumental in the successful sale of my medical practice. As a solo direct primary care physician, I was initially unsure whether my practice would be a good fit for a brokerage process. Not only did the sale occur sooner than I anticipated, but it also closed at a significantly higher value than I had expected. Shaun was professional, transparent, and honest throughout every step of the process. I would not hesitate to recommend Strategic Medical Brokers to other physicians considering a practice sale.

Sushil Gandhi & Nita Gandhi MD

Strategic Brokers, led by Shaun Rudgear and his team, has been instrumental in guiding me through the advertising and successful sale of my 32 year old solo pediatric practice. Over the course of more than two years, and after multiple offers that didn’t pan out, Shaun provided invaluable lessons on negotiating the sale of the practice, land, and office building.

He was always readily available to answer my questions and guide me through the contract negotiations and sale process. His team was exceptionally prompt in processing documents, making them available to the buyer, and sending me contracts to review and amend.

Additionally, Shaun introduced me to an excellent mergers and acquisitions attorney who assisted with contracting management services and the sale of the practice, land, and building. Thanks to their persistent support, I am now moving into semi-retirement and the next chapter of my life. Thank you all so much! I would highly recommend you and your company to any physician looking to buy or sell a medical practice.

Tammi L Schlichtemeier MD

Thank you so much to Shaun Rudgear and his excellent team at Strategic Medical Brokers. My practice is like my family, and Shaun really understood that and reassured me every step of the way of the selling process. Shaun’s thorough vetting process gave me the confidence to trust that I was making the right decisions to sell, and that I was not putting my financial future at risk. Shaun was always available for questions, and he guided the way through unfamiliar territory. Shaun also had the knowledge to negotiate with the lender on the buyer’s behalf to make the sale happen. He is knowledgeable about all aspects of the process. I highly recommend working with Strategic Medical Brokers if you are looking to sell a practice you worked hard to build and want to get the maximum value for it.

Frances Capraro MD

Thank you, Shaun, for all your guidance and support over the past 14 months. Your expert advice has been invaluable. I couldn’t have done this without you—it’s simply a fact. Your calm reassurance, knowledge, and experience made all the difference. Instead of feeling lost and floundering, I felt confident knowing I was being guided by someone who is capable of managing the process on their own, yet generously shared the enjoyable moments with me. I am truly grateful for everything you’ve done.

Ted Meyer MD

If you are considering selling your medical practice, you should seriously consider working with Shaun Rudgear and his team at Strategic Medical Brokers (SMB). Shaun and his team are true professionals and experts in every step of the process. They start with a candid and “No B.S.” assessment and valuation of the practice. It was refreshing not to play the game – the artificial inflation of the practice value so they can get the account, followed by a steady drumbeat of ratcheting down the price once the broker contract is signed. If you don’t like SMB’s initial valuation, shake hands and walk away, no harm, no foul. Once you agree on the realistic asking price, Shaun’s team takes over and is equally impressive and no-nonsense. Their market research is not just thorough; it’s exhaustive, and they truly represent you as the seller, protecting your practice information and filtering out anyone but serious buyers. NDAs must be signed before any information is disclosed. When a potential buyer wants to continue considering your practice, Shaun personally explains the valuation, preps you on interview questions, and graciously hosts the interested parties. However, rest assured you will be involved every step of the way. It is your practice, and you get the final say on all decisions – Shaun’s upfront, meticulous process ensures you are on the same page. We never had a serious issue over marketing or presentation. Suffice it to say his ability to handle closing will prove equally adept and professional.

My management team and I greatly appreciated how the SMB team conducted themselves personally and professionally. I wish you luck in selling your practice when the time is right, and I wholeheartedly recommend that you consider hiring Strategic Medical Brokers to represent you.

Choosing Shaun means you are placing the selling of your practice in good hands. During our initial and subsequent meetings, he was very upfront and professional in addressing all our questions and concerns. Shaun created a more streamlined and stress-free experience by providing superb services: marketing the practice to carefully vetted buyers, guiding us on how to respond to potential buyers to assure a more favorable outcome, steering us on how to maximally showcase our office, as well as connecting us with the right lawyer to review LOIs and contracts. We especially liked that he had a wide network of potential buyers reaching all the way out of state to finally connect us with the “right” one. Thank you, Shaun, for a job well done!

Ted Meyer, MD

Pediatrics
I’m a pediatrician with nearly 30 years of experience and have owned my private practice in Sebastian, Florida, for almost 20 years. It was a small, personal practice, and deciding to sell was a big step. I wasn’t at retirement age, but I was looking for a way to step back and find better balance in my life—spending more time with my children, supporting my aging parents, and exploring other professional and personal interests.
At first, I thought I could handle the sale myself. Like most physicians who run their own practice, I was used to managing everything. I even tried reaching out through my own connections but quickly realized I didn’t want to sell to a large chain, corporation, or hospital system. My practice was built on relationships, and I wanted to ensure my patients and staff transitioned smoothly. That’s when I reconnected with Shaun at Strategic Medical Brokers.
From the beginning, Shaun and his team made me feel like my practice was their top priority. Even though I was a solo practitioner, I never felt like I received any less attention than a larger, multi-physician practice. Throughout the process, I kept thinking, ‘I’m so glad Shaun is handling this,’ because I was still focused on patient care and my daily responsibilities. He took care of everything, making what could have been an overwhelming process feel manageable and even seamless.
One of my biggest concerns was finding the right buyer—someone who shared my values and would continue the kind of care my patients were used to. Shaun understood that. He wasn’t just trying to ‘close a deal’—he genuinely cared about my goals and worked to ensure I felt confident every step of the way. In the end, not only did the sale happen faster than expected, but it was also the right fit for me, my practice, and my patients.
Looking back, I can confidently say that hiring Strategic Medical Brokers was worth every penny. Physicians might hesitate when thinking about commissions and costs, but trust me—it’s an investment in your peace of mind and the future of your practice.
Now, I’m enjoying this new chapter, spending more time with my family and pursuing other professional interests while still practicing on my own terms. If you’re considering selling your practice, I absolutely recommend Shaun and Strategic Medical Brokers 100%—they truly make a difference.

When I decided to sell my practice, I did not know where to start. Shaun was very helpful in getting an appraisal of my practice and extremely helpful in marketing my practice to potential buyers. I really appreciated the vetting process of the potential buyers. Shaun was able to find potential buyers who were going to be a good fit in purchasing the practice.

Shaun’s administrative staff were excellent. Marta and Vanessa are extremely organized, helpful, and they gave easy instructions on what information was needed  to provide to potential buyers looking at purchasing my practice, and what documents were needed in order to complete the purchase agreement. Marta was also instrumental in helping Shaun find potential buyers of the practice.

Once the details of the purchase agreement were worked out and completed, the actual sale transaction of the practice went much smoother than I anticipated. The escrow company that was used in the transaction was extremely helpful and professional.

David Yip MD

The idea of selling the practice was a daunting one for us and we didn’t even know where to start or what to expect. Luckily, we received a flyer in the mail some years ago from Strategic Medical Brokers. We held on to that flyer for a year or two and we are so thankful that we did.

Shaun and his team are true professionals and experts in this field. Even though the process is a huge undertaking, they made it as painless as possible. They were on top of every detail and reassuring us when we had doubts and worries. They were in constant contact with us and we were always able to get in touch with them. Even over the holiday season, which is when our practice actually sold.

We thank them for guiding us and holding our hand through the whole process. We highly recommend them to anyone interested in selling their practice. We couldn’t have done it without them.

From the initial consultation to the final sale of my pediatric practice in Texas, their team was professional, supportive, and highly knowledgeable.

Their expertise in practice valuations, marketing, and negotiations ensured that my practice was represented to the right buyers and positioned for success. They took the time to understand my goals and guided me every step of the way, offering personalized advice and solutions.

Thanks to Strategic Medical Brokers, I was able to transition out of practice ownership confidently, knowing my patients and staff would be in good hands with the new owners. I highly recommend their services to any physician considering a sale.

Scott C Jones MD

It was my pleasure to sell my medical practice and real estate with the assistance Of Strategic Medical Brokers. In less than three months he found the appropriate buyer and the deal closed flawlessly. The communication during the entire process was excellent and it was very clear they have closed many deals and are aware of issues that need to be addressed during the sale of a medical practice that I would never have thought of. Thanks for all your help and feel free to use me as a reference.

Choosing Shaun means you are placing the selling of your practice in good hands. During our initial and subsequent meetings, he was very upfront and professional in addressing all our questions and concerns. Shaun created a more streamlined and stress free experience by providing superb services: marketing the practice to carefully vetted buyers, guiding us on how to respond to potential buyers to assure a more favorable outcome, steering us on how to maximally showcase our office, as well as connecting us with the right lawyer to review LOIs and contracts. We especially liked that he had a wide network of potential buyers reaching all the way out of state to finally connect us with the “right” one. Thank you, Shaun, for a job well done!

Shaun and Olivia were a pleasure to work with. I listed my Family Practice with Strategic Brokers and received multiple inquires and site visits in a very short period of time. Received two full price cash offers in a matter of weeks. The best offer was accepted and was closed virtually in a matter of weeks. The whole process was quick, flawless and painless! I highly recommend this brokerage firm.
