If you’re considering selling your dermatology practice or if you’ve received an unsolicited offer, it’s crucial to understand the true market value of your practice. Of course, buyers want to get the best deal possible and will offer the lowest amount they think you’ll take. 

A dermatology valuation/appraisal gives you a clear, data-driven, insider’s understanding of what your practice is truly worth in today’s market. Whether you’re planning to sell soon or just exploring your options, knowing your value is the first step to making informed, strategic decisions. At TUSK, our valuations are precise, confidential, and obligation-free, and often reveal that your practice is worth far more than you think.

Transactions are complex and time-consuming. Having a representative and advocate will save you time, maximize your deal value, and get you the best structure possible.

TUSK’s seasoned analytics team rebuilds your financials from the general ledger up, identifying every penny that can be added back to maximize your EBITDA. Without an analytics team fighting for your EBITDA, buyers can layer on additional costs or exclude meaningful add-backs form their buyside analysis. TUSK works with demratology practice owners nationwide to ensure they sell their practice at the highest price with the best-fit partner, all while they continue their day-to-day operations.

A detailed practice valuation helps you understand your practice’s true value, identify areas for improvement, and set realistic expectations for the sale. It’s a critical step in achieving the best possible outcome.

We bring 4 or more offers to the table for the vast majority of our sellers!

It is important to align not only on the valuation they’re giving you for your business, but also on the team, their track record, their timeline, their strategy, and their culture. Most of our sellers stay on for 3-5 years post close and roll 20-40% of their equity into the future partnership, so it is important to be aligned with the MSO or PEG that buys your practice.
