Exit Stage

Who are Exit Stage Doctors?

You are beginning the 3 to 5 year transition from full-time clinical practice to part-time clinical practice or a complete exit from the chairside responsibilities. You have experienced practice and life success and look forward to the new version of you.

What do doctors in the Exit stage have in common?

You have explored, expanded and enhanced and the bulk of your nest egg is established
You are ready to enjoy all that you have planned and saved for
You want to capitalize on all of your years of effort by selling your practice, adding significantly to your nest egg
Everything you hear tells you you should sell your practice to a DSO--and soon
Worry may set in that if you "wait too long" you will have nothing to sell
You have heard of friends selling their practices to OSO's for far more than you ever thought possible and wonder if this would be right for you
After years of practicing solo, you think being part of something bigger would be nice
You have some money to invest and are looking for avenues outside the stock market

What are the unique challenges for Exit stage doctors?

Exit doctors want to solidify plans for their transition to retirement. They are excited for the next phase, but have some trepidation about giving up practicing fully. After countless years of investing in their practices, they are hoping to monetize their life's work in the most advantageous manner possible, but they are not sure of the best path in the current marketplace. They wonder if they will be happy if they sell to a larger organization versus a solo practitioner.

The realization that "you" are the financial engine of the practice with no backup weighs on you. "What if I get hurt skiing, what if COVID happens again...." There is great risk here and you know it
You want to solidify your financial security by making the best decision; you need to get this right and want to sell your practice for the maximum amount
You think affiliating with a DSO sounds more and more appealing but wonder which DSO to partner with; you do not know where to start
You recognize that young doctors cannot borrow the money required to purchase your practice and you will be required to carry a note on the practice, tying you to the practice for a longer period of time and with higher risk
You may worry you will not be able to find somebody who is interested in buying your practice
Your practice may not be able to support a full time associate, which reduces your pool of potential doctors; joining an OSO may provide income up front to make this transition possible
Your timeline can not be met if you have to go through 2-3 associates to find the right match that has the ability to purchase and manage a large practice. 
If you own your own building you want rental income in retirement and do not want to be forced to sell the real estate to a new doctor
