Testimonials and Accreditation

Brad’s wealth of experience from his background in banking is undeniable and his understanding of contracts and lawyers is commendable. The transactions were so smooth with no hassles at all! We truly appreciate the amazing services you have rendered us and we look forward to more transactions with you.

Thanks Brad for your help in the recent sale of my dental practice. It was definitely the right move to call Health Linc when we were approached to sell – even though the Practice wasn’t on the market at the time! When chatting to colleagues who had recently sold their practices – they recommended you – we now know why and would definitely do the same to others.

Prompt, personable and practical – with a good dose of humour.  7 star service- always available to assist including additional sources of advice. A great experience! Thank you.

PS – ‘ people won’t remember what you said but they will remember how you made them feel’ – as the song goes – we’re feeling good!!!

“I am very thankful that Brad was recommended to us to act as a broker for the sale of our Podiatry practice. Brad was extremely professional and was a huge calming influence throughout the whole process. Selling a business can be quite daunting but Brad made the process as smooth and efficient as possible. I would highly recommend him for his professional skills but also because he is a really good guy”

Thank you very much for your assistance with the sale of our surgery.

I am well aware that the process was protracted and difficult. Your handling of all matters was professional and efficient and reduced our stress levels enormously. Your friendly and easy going manner made it a pleasure to do business with you.

I have no hesitation in recommending your services to my colleagues.

Thank you so much for your great effort to sell my practice. It has been a wonderful transition & I couldn’t be more grateful for the work you did to make this happen.

Thank you very much for your help and excellent service throughout this sale. I couldn’t have been happier with the way you approached the task and the outcome we achieved.

I have had cause on two occasions to utilise the services of Mr. Brad Potter in the sale of two of my Physiotherapy Practices.

My dealings with Brad have always been most satisfactory on all levels. His personal touch and excellent communication have always kept me exceedingly well informed throughout the selling process. Brad never fails to alleviate the inevitable stress that occurs when selling a business that you have nurtured and grown to become a saleable item.

I initially contacted Brad following a word of mouth referral from another satisfied business owner and found Brad to be approachable, efficient and of great assistance to a first time vendor.

Brad worked hard to attain the best possible outcome for me and my business when dealing with prospective clients and maintained a relaxed professionalism that I admire.

All businesses grow and once they are “finished” should be sold as the profitable entities that they are. I will be calling upon his services in the near future when my current practice reaches its potential.

After spending a lot of time and money trying to sell our country house and dental clinic we kept getting the wrong people showing interest. This time last year we approached Brad to sell it for us, and now 1 year on, we are settling the whole lot to a wonderful dentist with family who will enjoy country living and keep servicing our patients.

Thanks so much for all your help with the sale of my practice.  It was such a relief to me to realise that the health field was your specialty and that you clearly understood my needs.  I was impressed with your knowledge of the “Who is who in the zoo” of buying and selling practices and who were the likely players.  I felt supported throughout the process and was very comfortable asking for help when I thought I needed advice.  I could not have asked for a smoother process and I would be happy to recommend you to others who are contemplating the sale or purchase of a practice.

I would like to thank Brad for the courteous and efficient way in which he handled the recent sale. Potential buyers [of my North Perth medical practice] were carefully screened to my specific requirements for an owner occupier purchaser. I am completely satisfied with the outcome and would not hesitate to recommend Brad to any future client wishing to buy or sell a practice.

Hi Brad,

I am glad the stresses are easing. Thanks for helping me to stay almost sane through the process. I won’t say I want to do it all again but I am glad it is done.

Selling my Medical Practice was a tough decision. Brad had the type of buyer I wanted straight away. Stress did happen but Brad supported me and approached the issues with dedication and knowledge. The end result was positive for myself and my staff.

Metceni Health Mandurah

I first med Brad in 1999 and he was always freely shared his insights about the sate of play in Dentistry in WA. I needed a periodontist to commit to the practice and we started discussing the options of partnership or the sale of the business in 2016. 

Brad was always generous with his time & advice. As it transpired, Brad understood that I wanted to keep working in the business and found the right buyer when the time was right. This could not of happened without his extensive network in both dental practice sales or commercial real estate. Experience matters and today’s buyer is tomorrow’s seller, so brad understands the need to maintain integrity throughout the process.

 There’s no doubt that the process is stressful & Brad was always available and approachable to discuss any aspect of my concerns. I rarely write testimonials and have no hesitation in writing this one, Give Brad a call for a chat, even if you are not sure if you are ready to sell.

Alliance Periodontics & Implants

I first met Brad Potter of The Health Linc in 1998 when I was setting up my solo specialist periodontal practice.  At that stage he was involved in medical practice finance.  We have remained in contact over the last 20+ years through our dental connections.  Recently Brad was instrumental in facilitating the sale of my practice including the building.  It is an emotional experience, and I am grateful to Brad who made the negotiation process as straightforward as possible and assisted in many aspects of handover.  Brad manages to keep a professional and positive disposition and his sense of humour helps keep the stressful moments easier to manage.  Thank you Brad, I would certainly recommend the service you provide to my general dental and specialist colleagues.

Thank you for your efforts in selling our practice. We enjoyed working with you and would recommend you to anyone looking to sell or buy a medical based business.

Thanks for your achieving the sale of 3/434 Cambridge Street.

You did an unbelievable job as I thought it was going to be a really hard sell!

But to sell the practice and the surgery was unbelievable. And to get a very competitive price is even better.

We’ve just received the gift from yourself but I’m going to let Ashley open it!

Once again I am really ecstatic with your work and I have no hesitation in recommending you for the sale of any dental practice I hear about

Kind Regards

Cary Dry

Thank you for your generous ‘Congratulations’ gift, your kindness, support and for achieving the seemingly impossible with the sale of the business and property.

With much gratitude,

Ashley Dry

Thank you for your most efficient assistance with the sale of our practice. So far all is just as we had hoped and indications are that things will continue similarly. The Verve was a nice touch and very much enjoyed.

Brad, You were brilliant in being the buffer between me and the prospective buyer. Without you there I probably would be bald – and I have a lot of hair!!

I feel you understood my point of view and value system extremely well, I felt supported.

Much obliged to you for your professional yet personal service.

Hi Brad

I just want to thank you for your exceptional professionalism and support in the sale of my practice.

As a long term practice owner selling a business that represents a lifetime of achievement is a difficult emotional process and I truly appreciated your guidance and in particular finding the right buyers for myself and my long time loyal staff who have helped me grow the business over many years.i have no doubt that the practice will continue to flourish under the new management.

Without doubt you and your company have no peer as practice brokers and I would have no hesitation in recommending your services.

Best wishes

Greg Doucas

I am sure that by now you would have read many testimonials on how effective and efficient Brad Potter is, and have little doubt in your mind that he is reputable business broker. After all, he is one of the best. However, I am here to share my tale of what happens when a business sale does not go to plan. Selling my practice was a daunting task for me. I didn’t know where to begin, except that I knew I needed assistance. Through word of mouth recommendation, I contacted Brad Potter from the Health Linc over 3 years ago, and we started the process. Along the way, the business partnership fell apart and there were many stumbling blocks to the sale. I must stress that none of this had to do with Brad but rather, circumstances out of our control. Throughout this extended process, Brad was outstanding. He was patient and professional, and understood when we had to delay, and eventually cancel the practice sale. We parted on good terms.

I am happy to say that though it has been a long time coming, when we tried to sell the practice again 3 years later, it was a success. We asked Brad again to help with this, and he achieved a fantastic result, with a purchase price higher than asking, and quickly to boot. 

I can not recommend Brad highly enough, both for his professionalism and empathy. He went above and beyond to help us achieve the result we needed, and handled it everything in a positive manner. 

Once again, a big thank you and if we are in need of a broker in the future we know who to call! 

Healthlinc is the new place to sell your pharmacy or the place to go to if you are buying one. Gone are the days of wholesalers valuing your pharmacy and then offering to a select few.

Selling your pharmacy is a major event as it is most likely one of your major assets. When you sell your home, you employ an agent to value, market and sell for the best possible price. It is the same when you sell your pharmacy. You need a credible broker who knows the industry and is with you all the way.

Brads service was exceptional. He was very professional from start to finish . Brad definitely exceeded my expectations and I would recommend Healthlinc to sell your pharmacy without reservation .

It is with pleasure I submit a testimonial for Brad Potter, of The Healthlinc.

As the sole female director, I started my fledging business 15 years ago as a recruitment agency in the health arena.

Wesley quickly developed 3 core areas of business, HR, Training and Information Technology. It has been an amazing journey watching a ‘good idea’ blossom into a vibrant and successful business.

I initially met with Brad 18 months before I actually sold Wesley IT – to broach the sensitive subject of selling a part of Wesley. I didn’t really know to how to process this conclusion I had arrived at, but looking back, my chats with Brad then were invaluable. Brad has a unique way of letting you know ‘he gets your situation’ (which really creates the trust in the relationship and your own journey). Brad offers just the amount of ‘validation’ of your decision emotionally (without being emotional). Looking back, one of the best thing Brad did then was give me permission for selling a part of Wesley, that it was ok – then moved forward with professional and rational solutions which made me feel I was in safe hands.

My emotional attachment to Wesley meant that I continued to process these things while beavering on.

A year later, I was able to pick up the phone to Brad – and say .. ‘Brad .. it’s time’.

Brad came to my office and trust already having been established, we quickly moved to the details of making it happen.

As my overall business by this stage, had become more complex in the way each division was integrated with the other (both operationally and financially), my over-riding feeling at this point, was how I would communicate this part of the business and what it meant – pulled apart from the other aspects of my business.

This was the time to get into the nitty gritty of valuing Wesley and what the division meant as a stand- alone product.

Knowing my business intimately, I was truly impressed the way I was able to dialogue the various elements of Wesley, and how quickly Brad ‘got it’. We tossed ideas quickly back and forth and very quickly Brad’s direction assisted coming to a conclusion that I knew was correct and sat well with me.

Honestly, I was in awe how Brad really understood the essence of the business and how to interpret it that way, so quickly. But Brad did – and I was very comfortable in moving forward knowing someone understood both me and the business and would action things appropriately.

From this point – things moved quite quickly. Brad approached potential purchasers in the market place. These dialogues were very constructive and effective.

An interested buyer was evident, and from this point, I was again impressed at the way Brad navigated the questions and journey of the buyer (as they have their own journey too!) towards a final sign off.

It was a surprise to me the ‘emotion’ I felt at this stage (sign off time). All parties met at Brad’s office, and again the transition was handled with professionalism, humour and enough engagement and humanity to make you feel you had made the right decision and life was good.

During the process of hand-over – Brad checked in and at this stage I realised how efficient, organised and process driven Brad also is. I have never had the occasion to ‘ring Brad’ – because he would always ‘ring you’ first! Brad is on top of things and doesn’t wait for something to be overdue – he rings first to make sure you have it either covered, or to offer his assistance.

So – Brad assisted us with the important aspects of a good handover, mentored and when things were going very well between the purchaser and myself, he allowed us to communicate in our own way all the while either monitoring the ‘open communication’ or being available to help as required.

I felt the sale of something very personal to me, was handled with professionalism, expertise with a good dash of humour and humanity.

Brad is a realist, business savy and smart. Maybe a part of why Brad is so successful is his emotional intelligence which allows him to read between the lines and effect action in the best interests of both parties.

While I was writing a routine email to Brad recently, I viewed the signature to his email – ‘Professional – Pro-active – Personal’.

Yes, that is Brad Potter of The Healthlinc – to a tee!

I asked Brad to help me sell my equipment when moving my clinic as I heard he was great at it. In my experience, his service was nothing short of perfect. Fast, efficient and reliable. I cannot thank him enough for taking that stress off my shoulders and managing it so well. I highly recommend his services!

Dr Sarah Varma

The Health Linc helped me purchase a local dental practice whilst I was still residing overseas a few year ago. Brad guided me through the entire process, ever mindful of the technical and emotional rollercoaster ride that these events present especially with me not being available in Perth. I have been impressed by the level of professionalism, integrity, confidentiality and the speed at which the purchase occurred so much so, that I used the Healthlinc in the sale of a practice recently. Not only was the sale carried out in the same manner, but Brad kept me up to date through the entire process. I would highly recommend using Brad to anyone selling or buying a practice in Western Australia.

Now that we have had a chance to draw breath after the last few months and conclusion of the sale, I would like to thank you for your services and achieving the end result that we are happy with. We wish you all the very best in your future endeavours.

I asked Brad to find me a buyer for my practice, but I was looking for a purchaser who would fit with my transition plans. I thought that would mean I would need to look for a while, but without advertising,  Brad found three buyers within 10 days from his database who all made very sound offers. The whole process was quick and trouble free with all the systems Brad had in place to move things along efficiently.

Dental practice owner, Western Suburbs.

Only practice owners understand the true amount of heart and soul that goes into nurturing your business, your staff and your patients. When it became obvious that our practice had grown beyond what we could manage ourselves, our priority was to find someone who would continue providing a high standard of care for our patients as well as our staff who had become like family to us. But where to even begin? How do you find like minded practitioners? How do you assess what your practice is worth? What value do you assign to good will, plant and equipment? 

Luckily for us, we’d known of Brad’s name and his longstanding reputation in the industry. Brad was easy to approach and  generous in giving his expert advice even before we were certain about the sale.

Brad was incredibly efficient in finding the right person who we could trust with our patients and staff. While preparing for the sale, we were still stretched thin at the practice to fit all our patient appointments in, which meant we did not have the luxury of time to think about the finer details for the sale. Brad assisted us step by step and made this complex process as easy as possible with his unparalleled expertise (and great sense of humour!)

We can’t imagine how lengthy the search for the right buyer could have been if we had attempted this on our own, or how costly this process could have become if we didn’t have Brad’s help and advice.

We have no hesitation when it comes to recommending Brad. If you’re just looking around and not yet sure of what your next step is, speak to Brad like we did and you’ll likely receive some valuable insight that will aid you in your plans.

Sean and I want to thank you so much for all your help and support over these past 6 months.

When you presented us with the option of selling our practice to Dental Partners in December 2011 we never thought that by March 2012 everything would be done and dusted.

Firstly thank you for understanding Yokine dental centre and bringing us the RIGHT offer, and then for making sure from that from the offer to purchase to the transfer of our practice you were with us every step of the way.

Your phone calls, emails and knowledge were amazing and I know that there were times I called you late into the night and you took every call, and assisted where you could. Both your financial back ground as well as your knowledge for the dental world gave us the back up and tools we needed to bring this whole thing together.

Just to let you know that things have gone really well with Dental Partners. They have ‘taken over’ Yokine dental centre but the good news is that it still feels like ‘our ‘practice. We are thrilled with our decision to sell to them and look forward to be a part of something ‘bigger’ and more fun. You will be pleased to know that my team have also settled in well and enjoying the systems that DP has put in place.

Brad, for me highlight of your friendship and support was on the day that transfer took place. It was a funny feeling as the practice was transerferred from one person to another and at that moment 2pm Eastern standard time, nothing happened in our practice to make things feel final or even special. Then you walked in, just to sit there with us, you were so thoughtful with your gift but more than that, you gave us your time and just wanted to be with us at an emotional time.

As recent as this last week you have continued to support Sean and I by being a phone call away once again a very BIG thank as you were the one person who really understood our lives over the past 6 months and for me that was priceless.

So on behalf of Sean and myself we wish you all the very best for the rest of 2012. I hope it is a good year for you and that you find a few more lucky practices to join the DP team in WA.

If you need us to spend time with or speak to another dental practice looking to join the DP please feel free to call us. We only had you to talk to, and that is alot of preasure for one man to cope with, so if we can be of assistance to anyone else, please feel free to contact us.

Once again a very big thank for all you have done for myself and Sean we could not have done it without you.

Thank you for your professionalism and patience Brad!
We have appreciated your knowledge, fairness and availability during this potentially
stressful sale of our share of the practice partnership, as well as your humour!
We would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone needing your services and thank you
again for acting on our behalf.
With best regards,
Chris & Susan Hill

Dear Brad,

I write to you in your role as principal of the Health Linc to complement you on the way in which you have managed the sale of my practice. As we already had an intended purchaser I contacted you to facilitate the negotiation and to provide a appropriate documentation and guidance.

Having reached the end stages of the process I can reflect on what has been a smooth and stress free transfer where the value of the service far outweighs the cost. I appreciate your relaxed professionalism and the thoroughness that your years of experience have brought to achieving our ambition of a change of ownership based on fairness and maintaining good relationship with the purchaser.

I wish you continuing success and would unreservedly recommend that anyone considering the sale of a practice should contact The Health Linc for advice.

Thank you Brad for the amazing result on the sale of our “non preferred provider” dental practice. Our brief to Brad was to find someone who may be suitable to take on the practice that we had built and cherished for 17 years. Within two weeks Brad had his first potential buyer who we thought was somebody we could see either working with us or taking the loyal patient base we had developed. Within a week and whilst the first potential buyer was considering their options Brad presented another person who made an offer the next working day after viewing our practice. The transition from acceptance of the offer to after the settlement was smooth and seamless with Brad being available at any time if required. We cannot thank Brad enough for his professionalism and dedication to see us not only get the right purchaser for practice but for selling it in such a quick time for the price we had discussed.

I first met Brad Potter a few years ago when he was working as a consultant with Medfin.

At that time I was very grateful to have someone who demonstrated an understanding of both my personal needs as well as my business requirements.

I continued to do business with Brad at Medfin and always felt that he did more than was required by “going the extra mile” Brad left Medfin to further his career.

When he joined Martyn Harris Realty as a consultant it was good to know that I had not lost touch with someone who was as knowledgeable and reliable as he is.

Brad has extensive experience with regard to selling and purchasing of dental practices and particularly with his understanding of the many aspects that make a successful dental practice possible.

A few weeks ago I decided to sell my dental practice due to ill health and the need to retire. When I contacted Martyn Harris Realty to have my practice assessed for possible sale, I was more than pleased to renew my business dealings with Brad.

I had not worked in my practice for more than a year and employed part-time dentists. The analysis of my dental practice was therefore more involved with Brad spending many hours preparing figures that would be of benefit to me and to any potential purchaser.

My practice was sold after receiving two signed offers within four days of being put on the market.

During the process of the sale Brad once again proved to be one of those exceptional and likeable people who is able to facilitate things and produce great results. I am truly appreciate of his efforts and can highly recommend him.

Dear Brad

Now that the practice sale has been completed, I would like to take the opportunity to say thank you.

It has been a pleasure dealing with you throughout what turned out to be a complex and lengthy process.

From the beginning of the process you had in depth understanding of the dental business. You were able to place a fair value on the practice which reflected years of hard work, dedication and investment.

You were very thorough going through the financials and representing the true value of the practice to the corporate buyers.

You were professional and put in 100% effort.

I especially appreciated the effort you put in, including early morning communications with the buyer’s headquarters over east with the 3hours time difference.

You made multiple trips to the premises with no hesitation even though the practice is in a regional town over 2hrs drive from Perth.

You were also able to deal directly with my accountant, bookkeeper, lawyer and landlord saving me time and allowing for a smooth settlement.

I appreciated that you were always prompt in responding to my phone calls and emails and following up with various issues as required.

You were open and honest at all times. You also, had excellent negotiation skills bringing a difficult sale to completion.

You were supportive throughout the process and helped reduce the stress associated with a major transition and transaction.

All in all, I certainly felt that you were dedicated in working on my behalf and for my best interest as the seller.

I already have and would highly recommend you as an agent for the sale of any practice in the health industry.

Thank you again and much appreciated

Kind Regards

Brads assistance and professionalism throughout the sale of our Dental practice was invaluable. Brad was readily available and happy to assist at all stages of the transition. His knowledge of the industry and his profession made the whole process easier.

We would happy recommend Brad to colleagues whom may wish to utilise his services .

I engaged Brad’s services as a facilitator for the sale of my dental practice in the northern suburbs. He not only accurately appraised the true worth of the business but exercised a high level professionalism at all times. He acted diligently and with discretion as required in any business transaction whilst keeping me well informed of any developments. He was always on hand and easily contactable to answer any queries as they arose. I have no hesitation in recommending his services to any prospective clients.

We engaged the services of Brad from The Health Clinic to sell our two practices. From the outset Brad delivered on his promise to promote and sell the practices. He is very well known and connected in WA and has a very wide network.  Brad is not just a broker; he’s a mediator, negotiator, run around person and all in good guy. He goes above and beyond what we ever expected. There were some complications that we never even knew about as Brad fixed them before they became a huge issue.  Brad’s professionalism and effort in selling our practices were second to none. We could not recommend Brad highly enough if you want your practice sold.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for making the sale of my veterinary practice a smooth and stress-free process. From the start you showed professionalism, enthusiasm and supreme efficiency. With your knowledge of the veterinary industry and your contacts you were able to find a buyer in a very short time. With your many years of experience I was confident in your ability to handle all the negotiations and the paper-work, to allow the sale to proceed in a timely and competent manner.

I have known Brad for many years first in the capacity of a Finance Broker and in the last few years as a Business Broker. In the latter capacity, we have discussed my exit strategy for my dental practice. While initially the discussions were in the planning of my exit, the advice from my doctors that I needed Coronary Bypass surgery brought forward the decision to sell. During this stressful time, Brad was excellent in providing step by step guidance in the process of selling. All the necessary forms to deal with the authorities and utilities were given in a timely manner.By the time of my surgery, everything was in place. He took the first potential buyers through the practice on the day of my hospital admission. By the time I was discharged a week later, the first offer was presented. Although this offer didn’t eventuate, he had a second buyer already waiting and the sale was finalised without too much of a delay.

Brad was very professional and prompt in all his dealings and I was happy with the outcome.

Selling my practice was a daunting prospect. The journey however turned out to be much better than expected.Thanks to the advice, guidance and excellent exposure in the medical and Allied health market provided by Brad, my practice was sold within one week of being on the market. Throughout the whole process Brad was available for any questions and I felt that he had my best interest at heart.  I can highly  recommend Brad for anyone that would like to sell a practice.

This letter is to say a huge thank-you for your expertise, proficiency and commitment in selling my Dental Practice in Como/Manning.

As this was carried out whilst I was overseas, I was extremely happy with the knowledge that the process was being undertaken in full transparency and was in ‘great hands’.

Thank you again.

Best wishes

Thank you Brad for a quick, fuss-free sale of The New Dentist.

Your industry experience and ability to match the appropriate buyer facilitated this successful outcome.

the Healthlinc is certainly recommended as the go-to for your business sale.

I recently engaged the services of Brad Potter from The Health Linc to sell my Dental Practice.

The sale was quicker and smoother than I could have ever imagined. Brad went above and beyond to ensure a smooth transition, offering sound advice and a high level of experience. I highly recommend The Health Linc for any business sale.

About a year ago, I decided it was time to progress to the next phase of my life and consider the possibility of semi-retirement. After 40+ years, it was a challenging project that began with the question: “Where do we start with valuing and selling our business?”

That question was settled when an interested party contacted us out of the blue through a mutual acquaintance. We started negotiations, with the assistance of our trusted accountant.

We soon discovered that the project was large and complicated – involving the valuation and sale of the business and building.

Discussions progressed, stalled and restarted – until we eventually realised we needed help.

A serendipitous stab in the dark led us to The Health Linc website and Brad Potter. I knew Brad years earlier when he was involved with Medfin. I also remembered his reputation as a reliable and trustworthy person. Brad had recently facilitated the sale of our dentists’ practice and I called to find out how it went. The feedback was totally positive, so we called to meet as soon as possible.

Brad met with us and advised as to what needed to be done. He was logical, sequential and had a positive attitude. He contacted the buyers and dealt with the major sticking points immediately.

As things progressed, he spoke to both parties on a regular basis. He called us often and checked in to see how we were doing. He took our calls on the spot – and when he couldn’t, he called us back ASAP.

Brad clearly believes in a ‘Win-Win’ mindset, as he often considers the buyer’s position when assessing delicate negotiations.

His attitude is a key component of his success. He brings a humerous, but serious, ‘can-do’ energy to a process which can be quite overwhelming.

At times it seemed like we would never get there, but we did.

On August 1st, 2023 my ‘baby’ was handed over to the new owners.

The mountains became molehills and the deed was done. The numerous boxes that needed to be ticked (and there are lots of them) were all completed. Brad was the conductor that kept everyone on the same page and ensured that the process flowed smoothly.

I am very happy with the result. I have continued to work for the new owners and look forward to watching them take the clinic onwards and upwards.

Our multidisciplinary allied health clinic was primarily a chiropractic clinic.

It now is owned by a dynamic physiotherapy team which will assimilate with the existing chiropractors.

I thank Brad for his energy, expertise and support in making this landmark decision a reality.

My advice to people facing a major challenge in health, life or business, is to seek out the best people and get their advice.

Selling a business is one of the major events in one’s life.

Brad Potter is a leader in his field and I would highly recommend him to anyone who is considering the sale (or purchase!) of a health clinic.

Ours was an ‘internal transaction’.  Everyone is still working together, and everyone is happy!  Brad was an essential element that facilitated the process for all.  He very fairly represented the situation to both buyer and seller.  His presence minimised costs – and headaches!  Some issues that may have caused difficulties were foreseen and avoided.  Huge knowledge, professional approach with good humour and integrity.

Simon Shanahan and Millicent Woon, SouthbridgeDental

When I am thinking of selling my practice. I have asked a few people and they all said the same things that I must see Brad. He knows everything about the sale and you would not waste your time or be disappointed… Really appreciate all you very kind support through this sale. I will highly recommend you to anyone in this business.

The best Dental business broker I know is Brad Potter. If anyone can honestly and with respect tenant or sell a dental practice, you can rely on him. Brad’s approach is very diligent, professional, competent and as such I highly recommend Brad to anyone wanting a positive experience.

Brad Potter showed an astute understanding of my situation and requirements regarding the urgent sale of my General Practice. Thanks to his initiative and enthusiasm a very satisfactory outcome was achieved with sale of the business within two weeks of our initial discussions. Outstanding!

After 30 years, selling “my baby” was a big deal to me. What I didn’t expect was to have someone of your calibre to guide me through. The way you helped me and conducted yourself was amazing. You knew when to offer your opinion and when not too. Your knowledge of the dental industry was outstanding and your willingness to pass this on freely was refreshing. You were not pushy and accepted my constant questions with aplomb. Thus I was well informed in my decision making and the process was done with precision. I feel fortunate that I had you overseeing the whole process.

Thanks a lot. I must commend your professionalism and efficiency. You left no doubt in my mind of how good you are in what you do. Keep it up. Looking forward to working with you again soon in more projects.

I would like to thank you for your excellent managing of our recent dental practice acquisition through you.

You are so brilliant with negotiation between parties and even though we were the buying party we felt that you were very fair with your handling of every aspect of the purchase. Always available and very quick to reply, with the added bonus of pleasant and happy demeanour, a pleasure to meet in person too.

Thanks again

Karen Morton

I have dealt with Brad Potter as a buyer on 2 separate occasions. Brad has always gone out of his way to ensure the best outcomes for all parties (while still being a good negotiator). Despite being the buyer I truly felt that he had my best interests at heart as well. Brad clearly knows and understands health businesses. If I was selling my clinic, there is no one else I would trust to sell it.

I think we owe you a BIG thank you!

It was a great learning experience for us and we appreciate your advice and direction in navigating this difficult assessment of the clinic.

We have been ultimately impressed by your industry knowledge, professionalism and methods.

Hopefully we get the chance again in the future to work together.

Kind regards

Brad assisted us in our second Dental practice purchase and he yet again facilitated a hassle free transaction. Brad’s availability and willingness to work for both the seller and the buyer in a professional manner along with his commitment to ensure both parties best interests were met was second to none.

I have always found Brad to always go the extra mile, the tireless hours that he puts into each transaction, along with his honest approach to negotiations have ensured that we have always had a successful business relationship. Brad has always shown diligence and integrity throughout the sale process and his continuing aftercare service is what has brought us back to using Brad to broker our second transaction. Thanks again Brad.

We wish to express our gratitude for the diligent and dependable service provided by Mr Brad Potter.

Our Requirements were very simple; we wanted to buy our dream practice.

It actually took Brad a year to find me the practice that we wanted.

The day I met Brad, I had described to him the kind of practice i was looking for and he straight away understood what i wanted.

I kept in constant touch enquiring about practices in the market and he relentlessly with genuine effort sent me the details and information of all the good practices that suited my description. We saw quite a number of practices and since my requirements were precise, I ended up discarding all of them; however he never lost patience and kept up his determination to find me the right practice.

Once we found a practice he was very supportive and negotiated a good deal for me.

Brad was very patient, supportive and receptive to our negotiations regardless of the time and energy he invested in the deal. He invested a lot of time, energy and effort communicating with my accountants, settlement agents, financiers, insurance agents, providing them with the paper work and information needed.

It actually felt like he was my agent rather than the sellers.

My fellow dentist friend’s advised me that negotiating and buying a practice is the most demanding and stressful event ever. I was quite stressed and apprehensive about it

However buying a clinic turned out to be one of the most enjoyable experiences I have ever had. Brad made it so easy and simple.

Brad’s services are certainly praiseworthy and I recommend his services to anyone interested in dealing with the Health Care industry.

Recently my wife and I purchased our first dental practice and Brad acted as the broker. We had been looking for a practice on and off for a few years and I recall Brad mentioning to me, you will know when you have found the right one for you. Well we did find that right one, late last year. Brad was able to skillfully bring first-time sellers and first-time buyers together and navigate both parties through the journey. We highly appreciate Brad’s professionalism and will be keen to continue working with him closely for the next adventure in the near future. Once again Brad, thanks for all your help.

Thank you, for your patience and professionalism in the acquisition of a dental practice suitable to my needs. I felt very comfortable communicating with you and your confidentiality is commendable. Furthermore, your promptness and 24/7 availability in dealing with matters and queries is above and beyond.

Thanks once again and I am very happy with my purchase, it is one of the best purchases I’ve ever made!

For my very first Dental practice purchase, I was very lucky to have Brad broker the deal. His extensive  finance experience, his knowledge of all things dental and his professional attitude ensured the processed of the purchase was smooth and without any hassle or delay.

Brad assisted in every way possible to overcome any conflict that potentially may have risen between the seller and the purchaser, I am most pleased with the way in which the transaction occurred.

Thank you for finding us our first practice, without your industry knowledge, honesty and willingness to make things happen and move forward we would not be where we are today.

I would like to express my sincerest appreciation for the high level of professionalism that you provided during the purchase of my new practice. I was really impressed with your no BS approach and efficiency, and your level of experience is obvious. Dealing with you was a great experience, and I just hope I wasn’t a difficult customer for you. Also, I’m very glad that you are still young, because I know that I will require your services in the future. Please stay healthy and happy.

I have recently purchased a psychology practice with Brad’s help. Honestly, I couldn’t have done it without him. From the start of the process I appreciated his honest, straight to the point approach as well as his knowledge of and experience with selling health practices. I had previously consulted two business brokers but it was clear they were not aware of the details specific to purchasing a health practice. Brad, on the other hand, had expert knowledge and was able to guide me though each stage of the process from valuing the business, to negotiating a price, through the ‘cold feet’ stage, and then finally to purchase and settlement. I couldn’t be happier with the service he provided and the outcome of the process. I highly recommend Brad to anyone considering buying or selling a health practice!

The Health Linc helped me purchase a local dental practice whilst I was still residing overseas a few year ago. Brad guided me through the entire process, ever mindful of the technical and emotional rollercoaster ride that these events present especially with me not being available in Perth. I have been impressed by the level of professionalism, integrity, confidentiality and the speed at which the purchase occurred so much so, that I used the Healthlinc in the sale of a practice recently. Not only was the sale carried out in the same manner, but Brad kept me up to date through the entire process. I would highly recommend using Brad to anyone selling or buying a practice in Western Australia.

Brad Potter recently assisted in a transaction involving my purchase of a pharmacy. He was a pleasure to deal with and delivered everything that was asked of him efficiently and with good humour.

I have recently had the pleasure of buying an amazing practice with Brad’s help. He is very knowledgeable of the dental industry and keeps up with the local markets and trends. He has been there every step of the process with good advice and experience.

Brad Potter from The Health Linc has been of great assistance in my desire to purchase a dental practice. His knowledge regarding business fundamentals in the specific field of interest i.e. dentistry in my instance is profound. His attention to detail and ability to source pertinent information and individuals relevant to a transaction are his particular strong suits. Brad’s variety of experience and knowledge ensures that as a client, I am completely aware of the various aspects of business prior to negotiating a transaction. I would highly recommend both buyers and sellers to Brad so he can facilitate the best outcome for both parties. I look forward to an ongoing business relationship that is fruitful for both Brad and myself.

In May 2010 I decided to purchase my first ever veterinary hospital. The daunting process was to be completed by the 30th June 2010. Brad Potter was recommended to me and his reputation was excellent. I am grateful that I had him organize this purchase as it proved to be a difficult task given the short time frame and the circumstances were also difficult. Brad was professional, reliable, approachable but most importantly positive and tenacious and made things happen. An important attribute for me which Brad displayed was that he was actually considerate and caring to my needs. He did not make me feel at any stage that this was “just another sale”, and instead made me feel that this practice was the purchase of a clinic that best suited my needs. He liaised with appropriate people i.e. the seller, the accountant, the settlement agent and the financer to make this seemingly impossible purchase happen. I have no hesitation in recommending Brad to any seller or purchaser, and I know that I will be maintaining a professional relationship with Brad for the length of my career.

I’ve found that often, agents can be quite secretive, but on both occasions [when I used his services as a business broker] Brad was exceedingly transparent throughout the whole procedure. Although he works for the seller, he also has the buyer’s interest in mind… Brad clearly cares for both the buyer and the seller. Even at the handover, he ensured that both parties were protected, and everyone was happy. I’d thoroughly recommend Brad Potter to anyone requiring a business broker.
