Partners in search, Nick Kerr and Shaquille Walker, join Rick and Royce to share their journey from risk-averse upbringings to acquiring HealthBridge, a concierge primary care clinic on Long Island. In this conversation, they discuss how their backgrounds, family considerations, and desire for autonomy led them to entrepreneurship through acquisition, while also reflecting on the emotional highs and lows of searching for, buying, and operating a small business. Furthermore, they describe what it’s like to partner with a founder who remains deeply involved in the practice, why concierge medicine offers an appealing model for both physicians and patients, and how they plan to build a differentiated, prevention-focused platform through thoughtful expansion. Along the way, the conversation explores physician burnout, the value of separating clinical care from business management, and the compelling alignment that strong operational leadership can create for doctors, patients, and investors alike.
