Over the past seven years, there has been an explosion in acquisition and investment activity in the dermatology market.

From the perspective of a buyer in this marketplace, they value practices that have repeatable customers and revenue. A buyer will also focus on practice attributes, such as attrition rate of patients, backlog of patient appointments, history of procedures per patient and frequency that the average patient visits the facility.

“Many dermatology practices are innovating to increase their top-line opportunities,” says A&M Managing Director Andrew Henoch in a recent report in Practical Dermatology.
