What our clients are saying

After many years working as an associate OD, the time had finally arrived for me to purchase my own practice. The team at ACQUIOS was invaluable in helping me navigate all the challenges that arose during the acquisition. I particularly appreciate the help of my main advisor, who was an absolute pleasure to work with. She walked me step-by-step through the purchase and then the transition, answering my questions and steering me clear of potential pitfalls. With the help of ACQUIOS, I am now a proud practice owner, and I can’t imagine what it would have been like to go through the process without them!

Dr. Tina Patel
OPTOMETRIST - LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA

I’ve worked with ACQUIOS [since 2009], and they truly understands our business. ACQUIOS gets it. We’re trained as clinicians, but we need help with the business aspect of eye care. ACQUIOS is our coach, adviser and advocate. If you’re thinking about working with ACQUIOS, sign up. I know you’ll be happy with your decision.​

Dr. Barry Frankel
OPTOMETRIST – PALM SPRINGS, FLORIDA

Working in this industry, I’ve been able to help children and adults improve their quality of life with better vision – and now I have had the amazing opportunity to help doctors open new practices and guide them to make positive, lasting improvements to their existing practices. My passion for my work grows every day. I can proudly say I love what I do.

Kirk Kastens
Founder and Advisor

I’m tremendously grateful for all that ACQUIOS has assisted me with. I know I wouldn’t have gotten this far without them. They’ve always listened to my concerns and have made such a positive impact for my family and me. Leaving my previous career for a better life with a new practice was a huge, frightening step forward, and I want to thank them for being there every step of the way.

Dr. Garley Leon
OPTOMETRIST – SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA

[Since 2013], I have had the privilege of working with ACQUIOS as I start my own optometric practice. Their mentoring and knowledge of the field have been instrumental in my growth over this first year. The advisors at ACQUIOS are very professional and maintain a positive attitude in stressful situations. I get asked all the time about the one thing that I would recommend to someone starting their own practice, and the first word out of my mouth is always a good consultant. ACQUIOS has helped me build the team, materials and confidence I needed to make my practice a success.​

Dr. Kayla Gaddis
Optometrist – McKinney, Texas

I highly recommend ACQUIOS for private practice advising needs. The advisors are extremely knowledgeable and have many years of experience. They are always available to provide useful advice and feedback, no matter how big or small the issue you are facing as a practice owner. I always feel better after speaking with my advisor. He puts things into perspective and provides great guidance and recommendations that make sense for our situation. I appreciate everything they have done for our practice over the years, and we will continue using ACQUIOS for many more.

Dr. Laura Rosanova-Philipp
OPTOMETRIST - PALATINE, ILLINOIS

We are deeply grateful to our advisor at ACQUIOS for her outstanding support in helping us successfully onboard a talented associate OD. Our advisor dedicated three full days to our practice, immersing herself in our day-to-day operations and offering insightful, actionable recommendations that truly resonated with our team.

Her presence was both energizing and enlightening. Her comprehensive written report, paired with her ongoing consultations, has been instrumental in streamlining our workflow, enhancing team communication, and boosting overall productivity. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, our practice is operating more efficiently than ever and is well-positioned for continued growth. We wholeheartedly recommend ACQUIOS to any practice seeking to elevate its performance and achieve lasting success.

Dr. Kent Wilson
OPTOMETRIST - TERRELL, TEXAS

We had the great opportunity to work with ACQUIOS on multiple levels as a cold-start practice. Our advisor was phenomenal in strategizing our next steps and developing a system to make us productive from the start. We received terrific help with budgeting, goal setting, hiring, and patient scheduling as we continued to grow. Their extensive experience in “real-world” private practice was a tremendous asset in helping us turn a dream and a vision into a reality. We found it easy to communicate our needs, which enabled us to put a plan in motion. We would definitely recommend ACQUIOS to help with your current needs and your future growth. Top-notch!
