Generational Equity Executive Managing Director of M&A – Central Region, Michael Goss, and his team, led by Senior M&A Advisor, Cory Strickland, with support from Vice President, M&A, Jacob Mangalath, successfully closed the deal. Executive Managing Director Bill Kushnir established the initial relationship with D&D Sports Med.

“This was my first transaction in the physical therapy space; and since that time, I have had the pleasure of getting acclimated to a wonderful industry both as a patient and as a dealmaker. It’s been great to meet some of the key players aggressively expanding into this space,” said Strickland.

He added, “I was thrilled to be able to meet a true pioneer in the sports-focused D&D North Texas practice led by Kathy Dieringer, who leads a great team. I am equally as excited to have been able to join Blue Sky Therapy to D&D which is new on the scene of acquisitions and rapidly moving into the Texas markets. I wish both the buyer and seller success in their future endeavors.”
