Connecticut Optometry Practice for Sale

You don’t build a practice like this overnight. This one has been part of Milford since 1967. 

There are patients here you’ve watched grow up.

The kid who sat in your exam chair years ago eventually comes back with kids of their own. You know which patients will spend twenty minutes choosing between two frames. You know who wants the earliest appointment of the day, who always asks about your family, and who has been trusting this office with their vision for decades.

That’s what nearly 60 years in a community can build.

And Milford is a pretty special community to build it in. Set along Long Island Sound, this coastal Connecticut city gives you 17 miles of shoreline, beaches and a harbor, a walkable downtown filled with restaurants and local shops, and the kind of community traditions that turn neighbors into familiar faces. It’s a place where you can build your career, raise a family, and still make it to the beach after your last patient of the day.

You start seeing patients at a pace that has supported a growing practice while maintaining a 36-hour patient-care week. You’re practicing comprehensive optometry.

One room over, your team is helping someone find their next pair of glasses. With a distinct personality, the optical features Ferragamo, Ray-Ban, Costa, Silhouette, Nike, Calvin Klein, DKNY, Cole Haan, Flexon, Serengeti and plenty more. And because there’s an in-office lab, you’re not simply examining patients and sending everything somewhere else. An Essilor Kappa edger and Kappa CT blocker-tracer keep optical operations close at hand.

Behind the scenes, the practice already has the systems and technology you’d expect to keep things moving with electronic health records, patient recall and communication, and participation with most major insurance plans.

There are two experienced staff members who know the patients, know the office, and are willing to stay with the practice after the sale. And the current owner isn’t planning to simply hand over the keys and disappear. The seller is willing to help the new owner through the transition, and to stay involved in the optical; giving you the benefit of someone who already knows the patients, the products, and the rhythm of the practice.

The practice combines its long history with a broad range of diagnostic and clinical technology. You have retinal photography, OCT, visual field testing, pachymetry and additional diagnostic technology already in the office. There are two exam lanes. The second is approximately three-quarters equipped.

The practice has spent decades building the part of a practice that takes the longest to create; patient relationships. This gives you immediate opportunity for growth.

Finish equipping the second exam lane. Add an associate. Expand beyond the current patient-care hours. Introduce new clinical services. Put energy behind marketing and patient acquisition.

There is room to grow provider capacity and services without having to first create a patient base from zero.

And when you’re ready to head home at the end of the day?

You’re in Milford.

That’s a pretty good place to clock out.
