Watch the Interview
In this interview, Rebecca Davis, founder of Practice Sales Advisor and Certified Valuation Analyst, joins Rusty Russell, CFP®, CWS®, CEPA®, CKA®, to unpack what really determines the value of a veterinary practice and why the wisest owners start the valuation process years in advance.
Together, they discuss what drives practice value, what lenders look for, how to avoid overvaluation, and how early planning helps owners exit on their own terms.
It’s a firsthand look at the financial, operational, and emotional side of preparing for one of the most important transitions in your professional life.
