Thirty years as a clinician/owner, responding to a buyer’s interest in my former patient care practice and ultimately the sale of a standalone clinic in 2013 serves as the basis of the following.  Mike is one of the most qualified and knowledgeable individuals to provide buy/sell advisory services.  He has worked through a variety of transactions, knows where the issues are and how to mitigate them.  This knowledge is critical to avoid delays, maximize value and proceed to a closing.  Mike is a very thoughtful and a calming influence throughout a very stressful period.

With 26 clinics in 5 states, the sale of our business was somewhat challenging.  Mike was very supportive and diligent in resolving the challenges related to determining the valuation, finalizing the Purchase Agreement, etc.  Mike was always understanding, responsive and dedicated to closing the transaction. He worked very hard to find solutions to complex and difficult issues. I appreciated the professionalism he displayed in representing the buyer. A respectful and lasting relationship was developed with me and my team. To this day I consider him a friend.

I was very pleased with how Mike communicated and oversaw the process.  Mike was able to get me and my advisors comfortable with him and the process at our initial meeting.  I was pleased that Mike kept the process organized and led it to a closing on a timely basis.

As the Vice President for Newington Children’s Hospital Affiliates, Inc., I worked extensively with Mike on the sale of Newington O&P Systems. For 25 years, I also worked with Mike on the buy side of many O&P companies. Mike always exhibited the highest level of integrity. He is a very effective communicator and negotiator. I am very confident that with his expertise and ability to resolve conflicts, Mike will successfully advise owners on the sale and acquisition of their businesses.

I’ve had multiple occasions to work directly with Mike over the past 4+ years regarding my business.  In my experience, he is uniquely knowledgeable about the O&P industry, pleasant to work with, a very positive person and skilled communicator.  These attributes and his ability to consistently display a sense of fairness made me comfortable throughout our discussions.  I highly recommend his services.

Through all of the ups and downs during the process of selling my business, Mike and Craig were always there for me.  Even though they were on the buy side, it felt like they were on my team; their support and guidance were invaluable.  Mike demonstrated during our initial consultation through the closing, straightforward and honest communications, which initially facilitated getting me comfortable to proceed with the process and ultimately led to a successful closing.
