Episode Notes

“Optometrists don’t really understand the value of their practices,” says Jackie Joachim. “We have a really good thing going and we deserve to get paid for that good thing.”

Joachim is optimistic about the future value of optometric practices, believing “They are where dental practices were 15 years ago.” If selling your practice is even remotely on your horizon, this episode has “must listen” advice for you.

The various types of appraisals are discussed, including comprehensive appraisals, modified appraisals and letters of opinion. Even if you aren’t interested in selling right away, an appraisal is a useful financial planning tool.
