My husband and I have worked with Nick on both a startup and a hospital acquisition, and he was instrumental in our success in both cases. With our startup, he was with us every step of the way as we navigated our buildout, setting up vendor accounts, permitting, goal-setting, and everything in between. Once we were open, Nick followed up with us regularly to ensure we were set up for success and offered guidance when needed. He was an excellent cheerleader as we exceeded the goals we had discussed at length prior to opening and a steady mentor as we encountered unknown situations. We maintained a relationship with Nick over the years, so it was a no-brainer to tap into his wealth of knowledge when we decided to purchase an existing hospital. For anyone looking to start or purchase a veterinary hospital, Nick is an outstanding consultant who will make sure you are set up for success.
