Strategic Chiropractor
About Company
We’ve helped over 3000 Doctors of Chiropractic to Buy, Value or Sell a Chiropractic Practice SMARTER.
Founded by Tom Necela, DC over two decades ago, The Strategic Chiropractor has helped over 3000 chiropractors to buy, value and sell their chiropractic practice smarter.
Dr. Tom is a LifeWest graduate and author of several popular books, including best-selling transitions program in the chiropractic profession: The Ultimate Chiropractic Exit Strategy.
As a result of his work in chiropractic, Dr. Necela is the first and only chiropractor (and chiropractic practice broker) to earn the “Industry Expert” status for his work helping DC’s transition, buy and sell their chiropractic practice by the world’s largest trade journal exclusively for business brokers – Business Brokerage Press. Dr. Tom also has the honor of being the only featured industry expert for the chiropractic profession in the latest edition of the 2021 Business Reference Guide: The Essential Guide to Pricing Businesses & Franchises (30th Edition).
Unlike most chiropractic practice brokers who have no formal training or credentials that establish their expertise, Dr. Tom is also the FIRST AND ONLY chiropractor to achieve the Certified Business Broker (CBB) credential and Accredited Business Intermediary (ABI) status. Additionally, he stays active in the brokerage industry as an active member of the International Business Brokers Association (IBBA), the American Business Brokers Association (ABA), and the Texas Association of Business Brokers (TABB) – three of the largest professional associations and credentialing agencies for business brokers.
In addition, Dr. Necela was the first DC to achieve Certified Professional Medical Auditor (CPMA), Certified Professional Coder (CPC) and Certified Compliance Professional (CCP-P) status.
Dr. Necela is also a frequent speaker at state chiropractic association events and seminars and his writing has been featured in publications such as Chiropractic Economics, Dynamic Chiropractic.
Although he has won several awards for The Strategic Chiropractor website, which has been named one of the “Top 5 Chiropractic Blogs”, he’s most proud of his accomplishments as a husband and father to his children who live in San Antonio, Texas.
