What do veterinarians have to say about Simmons?

 

“The sale of my practice was handled in a very efficient and professional manner. I even had comments from prospective buyers that Simmons & Associates were more professional than other brokers they had dealt with.”
- Errol Littleton, DVM

 

"We send a special thank you for giving so much of your time and efforts to make our dreams come true.  We know for a fact, without you, it would never have happened."

- Todd McCoy, DVM

 

“I was very happy with the expertise shown by Simmons & Associates in the sale of my practice. Due to their knowledge in evaluating and problem solving we closed in 3 months. I understand that this is a little unusual. Thank you Dr. King.”
- Perry Sheets, DVM

 

“…earlier this year I purchased my first animal hospital through your brokerage.  It was a very nerve racking and stressful experience to say the least, but for my first time through the process it went as well as I could have possibly hoped.  It was an absolute pleasure to work with your office.  I will recommend you to anyone and everyone and I look forward to doing business with you again in the future.”
- Andrew Dooley, DVM

 

“Excellent experience overall – very helpful with expertise in obtaining lenders, legal advice and many other aspects. I would strongly recommend to others.”
- Johan Nieuwoudt, DVM

 

 “I wanted to thank both of you for being so careful and understanding of our situation.  I know it was difficult dealing with an appraisal of little value, along with handling a family still grieving from the loss of their father/husband.  This has been a difficult time for the family, but through talking with both Dr. Watson and yourself, Beverly, it has made the entire process bearable.  I am thrilled to have this concluded with no surprises or catches.  I will happily pass along your name to any people in need of your services.”
- Sincerely, Kevin Hills McArthur, Pinnacle Title Company, LLC

 

" . . . .as you know, we closed earlier today.  Lots of stumbling blocks along the way, but we made it.  I know you guys work for the seller, but you've been very helpful and kind to me during the process." 
- Dr. Dennis Leon

“From the very beginning of the practice analysis to the closing, Simmons & Associates was always available to guide me through the sale of my practice. They targeted many potential buyers, contacting them by mail, e-mail, and phone, and through journal ads and flyers.
