Dear Dr. Foster,

I wish my writing skills were adequate enough so that I could express my gratitude to you for your help in securing a buyer for my practice. From the first day you agreed to broker my office the response was amazing. Your advise in handling the prospective buyers was   invaluable. Although you are a chiropractor not an attorney, your contract was precise, easy to understand and made closing the deal very easy. Your expertise from beginning to end was all anybody could ask for in the sale of a practice, I sincerely thank you.

Dear Dr. Foster,

Words alone can not express how grateful I am to you for helping me to sell my practice.   You have all of the steps to the selling of a practice all planned out.  You made a seemingly difficult process, successful and painless.    My specific needs were to sell 50 percent of one practice with the intention of opening a new practice less than ten miles from the original.  I gave you a real challenge.

First, you made a comprehensive evaluation and appraisal of the practice.  Even the buyer was impressed.  Your support and negotiation skills exceeded my expectations.  You really taught me how to better utilize patience. 

Then, you customized a thorough yet concise contract for the sale of the practice.  The Buyer and I each had attorneys look it over to make possible changes.  Only minor changes were made.  Believe it or not, my attorney told me that if he would have been asked to customize this contract from scratch, it would have been far more expensive. 

In one of your articles, you boast to the readers how you have an “awesome ability to drive your four-wheel motorcycle up steep hills and plow through thick mud.”  If your riding skills are similar to your negotiating skills, ability to customize such a thorough yet concise contract and the capabilities to evaluate the value of a practice; then you should be able to ride your four-wheeler up Mount Everest.

Thank You Very Much,


Michael Sosa D.C.

Dear Dr. Foster,

Your service has more than exceeded my expectations. I initially intended to utilize your talents to assist me in the negotiations and transition of the purchase of my practice.  My background in chiropractic came from an associate doctor’s perspective.  As a result, I had difficulty running the business of chiropractic which took away from my passion and my ability to practice chiropractic.  Foreseeing potential problems I sought consultants.  Many of them had cookie cutter systems that did not address the challenges of running a business or leave any potential for growth.  I just felt like I was spinning my wheels and not using my time effectively. 

When I remembered my experience with Dr. Foster during the acquisition of my practice and how he taught me concepts on how to create and look at a deal.  My perspective changed on how I view a business and I could apply these concepts in different areas of my life.  So I gave him the opportunity to assist me in the running of my business. 

It’s a little over 2 months since I made that decision.  I feel happy to say that much of the stress created from running the business and not knowing what to do on a day to day basis has transformed into inspiration /motivation.  Most importantly I now can compartmentalize my responsibility as a business owner and as a chiropractor.  This gives me the ability to focus and excel at each task versus trying to wear two hats at once. 

The characteristic I admire and value the most about Dr. Dave is the straight talk. (“Just telling it how it is Attitude”)  I would definitely have to say that my success has a direct relationship with my association with Dr. Foster
        
Sincerely,

Dr. Adonis Alejandro

To Whom It May Concern:

I read about David Foster in Chiropractic Products for the first time.  I then called him up.  We talked briefly and I realized he was a compassionate, honest, pick and shovel, concerned about his profession and colleague’s chiropractor.  He also is a businessman.  One who understands the marketplace in which we practice in. 

As such, fair exchange is not only important to survive, but an ethical law.  David made me immediately aware that he was willing to share but that he also did not work for nothing.  Once established our dialogue was centered on our work, namely, serving the public, getting paid, and giving back to the profession.  His willingness to share, and not allowing himself to be taken advantage of, has been a great experience for me.  He has a wealth of not only information, but practical, successful experience. 

I think the essence of his mission is to share his knowledge, experience, and success, and get paid for it, be it in the patient arena, or the consulting arena.  This makes a strong case for a win-win situation, allowing all parties to benefit, thrive and go forth, continuing to serve.  This allows each who so desires to fulfill their purpose in Chiropractic.  I think David Foster has the unique position to teach both as a successful practitioner and consultant.

To Whom It May Concern:


I am writing this letter to let you know how pleased I was with the way David Foster handled the sale of my husband’s Chiropractic Practice. 

My husband passed away suddenly and I tried for several months to sell his practice on my own.  I had to meet with people almost every day and needless to say, it was very tiring and heartbreaking given my circumstances.

David had seen an ad that I had placed with a Chiropractic College and offered to help me find a buyer.  Within a week, he found someone that was very interested and we closed on the sale within three weeks.  He figured out for me what the sale price should be, which I thought was very fair to both myself and the buyer.  He handled all the questions that the buyer had and also helped him to figure the down payment and financing.  David also had his own contract, which my lawyer agreed upon and it saved me a lot of money in legal fees.

I feel that David handled the sale of my husband’s practice in a very knowledgeable and professional manner.  He was also very understanding, friendly, and easy to work with.  He had a genuine concern for me and the buyer of the practice.  He wanted us both to be happy with the outcome of the sale.

I would highly recommend David Foster if you are looking to either buy or sell a Chiropractic Practice.  He helped me through a very tough time in my life.  I really don’t know what I would have done without him. 

If you would like more information, please feel free to contact me.

Dave,

Thank you for your help with my practice expansion.  Your insight and experience has been invaluable.  You have taken the guess work out of finding the right associate and how to train them to duplicate my efforts. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking to take their business to a new level
