History of the Practice

Established 1976, Dr. Grygotis became sole owner in 2012. Steady income except for the covid years, plenty of opportunity for growth if we get another full-time veterinarian. Beautiful community 40 miles east of Tucson. We serve mostly the more affluent clientele, who really appreciate high-quality medicine and surgery, and we send the vaccine-only and low-cost spay/neuter cases to other veterinarians we trust.

What makes this practice special/Major selling points

Client relations are excellent. Working environment is not rushed. After a few years of high turnover, we finally have staff members that are excellent in every way - medical competence, client relations, most business management functions, and they all work well together. We also work closely with the other vet clinic in town - no cut-throat competition.
Benson is a small friendly town,, with a rich history and very affordable real estate. Twenty degrees cooler than Phoenix, at the edge of the Sonoran Desert, a haven for "snow-birds" from as far as Canada, but only 40 miles from Tucson, for that once-a-week trip to Costco, Home Depot, or a specialty metals store. If you would rather live on a horse ranch than in a big-city, this is your place.

What might the next owner need to improve in this practice?

More doctors. Arizona is short of DVMs, but that is likely to change as we start to see more graduates from two new vet schools in the state (Midwestern and U of A). We are especially looking forward to the first class out of U of A here in Tucson, and will be hosting some of their interns.
Equipment, computers, phones, all new or in excellent condition, except a 20-year old x-ray generator, which may need to be replaced in the next few years. Digital x-ray (both full body and dental) all in good shape. Surgical laser recently refurbished. Idexx lab equipment (hematology and chemistry) under full maintenance. They swap with a new one, if anything goes wrong. New solar panels good for another 20 years.
