A PHYSICIAN-OWNED PRIVATE EQUITY FIRM

FOR BARIATRIC & GENERAL

SURGERY PRACTICES

WHY BGS ALLIANCE

A new option in the face of consolidation

Consolidation in healthcare is here – with hospital systems and private equity groups at the helm. Faced with the pressure of increasing competition and lack of exit options, too often we see physicians making the same two mistakes: selling too low of earnings (EBITDA) or too low of an EBITDA multiple. 

To solve for this problem, we've created a new model for physicians – Doctor Equity – in which physicians own the private equity firm that would otherwise buy their practices. The Doctor Equity model puts you at the helm while enabling you to optimize your earnings potential and maximize the value of your practice before

a sale. 

MISSION
Surgical Scissors

We'll optimize your practice equity value while empowering you to keep control of your practice.
