For established chiropractors
Ready to retire?Your practice may not sell for the price you expect.
You spent decades building it. But a buyer will not pay for effort and history alone.
For established chiropractors
You spent decades building it. But a buyer will not pay for effort and history alone.
The blind spot
A buyer wants to know how much financial benefit remains for the next working owner and whether the practice can continue producing it after you leave.
Annual collections
How much revenue the practice produces.
Transferable earnings
How much financial benefit may remain for the next working owner.
Transferable earnings are often measured using Seller’s Discretionary Earnings, or SDE. Buyers and lenders use this number, along with risk, stability and market evidence, to evaluate what the practice may support at sale.
Revenue gets a buyer’s attention. Transferable earnings support the selling price.
The decision
If the estimated proceeds will not support the retirement you expect, you have identified a value gap. The practice needs time to strengthen its earnings, profitability or both.
If the financial value appears sufficient but the earnings, systems, patient acquisition and daily operations cannot transfer confidently, the practice needs to become more documented and less dependent on its current owner.
The runway
Five+ years before a planned sale is not too early.
It gives you time to make disciplined improvements, establish a credible performance history, strengthen the practice without rushing and identify the right chiropractor to continue caring for your patients.
Waiting until you are exhausted or ready to stop practicing turns a strategic transition into an urgent transaction.
The one you can change this year
Where your new patients come from.
A buyer looks at whether new patients arrive because of your name or because of the practice. Referral relationships are the strongest source most practices have, and the first thing that leaves with the seller.
A practice that is found for the conditions it treats, on a website it owns and a Google listing that matches, has a front door the next owner inherits. That is the part of the work we do for practices directly.
The private group
Whether you eventually sell, transition to another doctor or simply step back, the same work comes first: grow revenue, sharpen profitability, build reliable patient acquisition, standardize operations and reduce how much the practice depends on you.
That is why Dr. Simone Simaan and Joshua Breaux created this free private group. We apply the same approach you bring to patient care: examine the whole picture, find the root cause and address the right problem first.

No, and earlier is better. What actually sets the price, earnings, profitability, reliable patient acquisition and how little the practice depends on you, takes years to build and cannot be added in the final twelve months. An owner twenty years out has more to gain here than one who is two years out. If you have not decided whether you will ever sell, you are early enough.
No. Only a qualified valuation professional can provide a defensible valuation. The group will help you understand the numbers and value drivers involved so you can prepare for that process.
No. Members can participate without sharing sensitive financial information with the group.
No. The community helps owners understand the process and prepare for productive conversations with the professionals responsible for valuation, taxation, legal agreements, brokerage and personal retirement planning.
