“The EdgePoint team were indispensable in the sale of my medical practice. It would have been very foolish to attempt this without their expert representation. Obtaining the best sale price for the practice is only the beginning; successfully bringing the sale to completion is the real challenge. They were highly skilled in preparing the practice for market, and deftly navigated the sale process, negotiations, and due diligence. As a physician, I recognize the value of a well-trained, seasoned, skilled professional to help achieve a critical outcome. My sale would not have been successful without EdgePoint’s considerable expertise and negotiating skills.”
