Our Services

The Process

Our process is built to protect confidentiality, maximize value, and reach an efficient close:

  • Consultation and valuation: we learn your goals and establish a realistic value range.
  • Preparation: we build marketing materials, including a custom executive summary.
  • Confidential marketing: we reach qualified buyers through blind listings; buyers sign NDAs before seeing details.
  • Offers and due diligence: we negotiate letters of intent and manage a confidential data room; due diligence typically takes 90–120 days.
  • Legal process and closing: attorneys finalize the purchase agreement and regulatory approvals, and ownership transfers.

Who We Help

No matter where you are in your decision-making process, Stoneridge Partners can help you find answers.

  • Owners ready to sell. We determine what your business is worth, identify the right buyers, and manage the sale from start to finish.

  • Buyers looking to grow. We find acquisition and partnership opportunities that fit your strategy, even before they reach the market, and negotiate on your behalf.

  • Leaders planning what’s next. Our Strategic Consulting Group helps you evaluate joint ventures, new service lines, geographic expansion, and how to use CMS data to strengthen your business.

Why Healthcare Owners Choose Stoneridge Partners

We are there every step of the way and succeed where others have failed.

We’ve run healthcare businesses. Our advisors have held executive roles in healthcare operations and development, and members of our team helped build one of the country’s largest non-skilled home care companies.

We’ve been on the seller’s side of the table. Our leadership includes a former healthcare business owner who has sold his own company.

We focus only on healthcare. Every transaction we manage is in home care, home health, hospice, or behavioral health, so we understand reimbursement, licensing, and compliance issues buyers will examine.

We protect confidentiality. We market businesses through blind listings and share details only with qualified buyers who have signed NDAs.

We don’t charge upfront fees.
