Fee Per Item – DPAS – Freehold
We have a fantastic opportunity to acquire a well established, fully
private practice, in the beautiful and picturesque town of Torquay in
Devon. The practice has been established in the local community for
more than 30 years, and has the privilege of occupying an extremely
attractive Grade II listed building with views across the town of
Torquay. The practice comes accompanied with a large and loyal
private patient base, with around 845 patients seen only in the last 18
months with a further 152 visiting as ‘DPAS’ patients. The DPAS
income alone generates an annual turnover of £46,211, which when
worked out evenly over a 12 month period, generates a stable and
recurring monthly income of £3,851, which though not a huge
amount, really does allow for an aspect of financial stability, as you
know, that from one month to the next, this income will be in your
practice account. The majority of the gross fees are from Fee Per Item
income, 78% in fact relates to these gross fees, which is a highly
respectable £160,176 of the overall turnover. These fees clearly
represent the loyalty and consistency of the private patient base, as
quite a large percentage of these patients, have been returning to the
practice for many years.
Coastal Living – Scenic Location
The principal currently works at the practice 4 days per week, which
opens up the opportunity for further practice sessions. Another possibility
for increased practice sessions, could be the creation of a second
surgery, which will enable the introduction of a possible associate along
with a full-time in-coming principal. The space is there, so why not utilise
it (subject to planning permission being obtained).
This practice, really is something special, and we feel that it needs to be
seen to be fully appreciated. The sale is to facilitate the principal’s
retirement.
Along the 22 miles of English Riviera coastline are 19 beaches and coves.
Some, close to Torquay town centre are wide, open stretches of sand
with beach facilities such as cafes, beach huts and water sports. There is
an abundance of pavement cafes, Torquay pubs, Torquay restaurants
and nightlife, good quality shops and a host of attractions to suit every
interest.
