Testimonials
Unmatched Knowledge & Expertise
We were approached by private equity and strategic companies regarding various options for our future. We quickly realized we were not equipped to allocate the time necessary to manage such an important decision and run our business. We spent the last six years getting to know Michael and the Harbor team. When we realized that Harbor had the specific industry knowledge and regulatory expertise to maximize our valuation and ensure a successful transaction, we knew that we wanted Harbor to represent our company. At first we didn’t know if we needed representation but soon realized the tremendous value a group of expert bankers offered. Harbor spent the time to understand our goals and objectives. They evaluated the marketplace and honed in on the right acquirer. Harbor’s performance well exceeded any of our expectations. Thank you so much for giving me the security of knowing how we are going to fund our future growth. I look forward to our relationship with Harbor continuing into the future.

A Trusted Advisor
Ira Cammeyer and the Harbor Healthcare team have been a trusted advisor for all the Modern Health companies. Over the course of more than 15 years, Harbor has represented Modern in its acquisition strategy, along with its recent final sale of certain operating assets of its successful long-term care division. Harbor handled all transactions in the most professional and sensitive manner. In all our transactions, Ira and the team have been a valued member of Modern’s transaction/transition planning.

Thumbs Up
Thumbs Up – We were searching for a “Partner” more than a sale. A transaction that would allow us to continue the operational control which would enable us to continue providing the personal touch of a local pharmacy but with the purchasing and contracting clout of a national organization.
Ira was crucial in assisting this process and Michael worked tirelessly in establishing financials that would convert our private business records into the format required for evaluation by potential capital partners.
We could not be more pleased by the results and will continue our relationship with Harbor Healthcare so that they can assist us in finding potential acquisition targets.”

A Sentinel Event
A Sentinel Event – that is how I would describe my experience with Ira Cammeyer. Ira truly changed my life. After the sale of my pharmacy, I was honored to serve my profession by being appointed to the California State Board of Pharmacy for two four-year terms; acting as president for two years. I changed from working for money to having my money work for me. Ira Cammeyer is not a “business broker”.
He and his colleagues are deal makers. They maximize your position in the market and represent you 110%. The association does not stop after the deal is done. Belonging to the “Ira” family brings you opportunities in the future. In addition, Ira is there for you.
His opinion and network is just a phone call away. My wife sometimes jokes that we have a “statue” of Ira in our house and pay tribute to him on many occasions. The joke has a lot of truth to it. I would recommend Ira Cammeyer, and his company, without any reservation.”

Being a Pharmacist Himself
I have had the privilege of knowing Ira for 8 years and consider him to be both a friend and respected professional peer.
In our pharmacy profession, personality and performance equal good customer service, which is exactly what Ira has to offer any individual or company interested in retaining his service.
Being a pharmacist himself and owning his own businesses provides Ira with unique insight when working on behalf of a pharmacy owner… While working on my behalf, I observed several of Ira’s personality characteristics which helped create and keep the deal together; these being: people skills, positive attitude, decisiveness, creativity and intellect. In addition, during the transaction Ira was able to gain the respect of our prospective buyers with his expertise and style…
As a seasoned broker working in the pharmacy industry, Ira puts deals together for the right reason, to make a difference in the lives of the sellers.”

Best Fit!
They [Harbor] understand what operational and financial information is necessary and how best to prepare it in a format that interested several potential buyers. He helped us choose the one that would be a best “fit” for us as well as maximizing our sale price. The bottom line is that our business sold for the price we had asked for, and I personally have had some extra time on my hands to play some golf.
I would recommend Harbor Healthcare Consultants to anyone that has an interest in selling their business… If you want the team that will make it happen call Harbor Healthcare Consultants.”

WOW!
Wow! That may be the best way to describe Ira Cammeyer, his professionalism and integrity. I have had a tremendous experience working with Ira and his associate Stephanie Clark on the sale of my business, Price Rite Pharmacy, Inc. They are the best! … Had I tried to sell Price Rite Pharmacy without their help, I would never have accomplished what the two of them did for me nor received the price I desired and received for the sale of my business…”

Maximize Your Profit
Anyone can sell a business but to get the right price requires a lot of luck or a professional team that can match your company with the right buyer.
Harbor Healthcare Consultants was the right team for me. I found them to be honest, sincere, knowledgeable, and they worked as hard to help me sell my business as I did building it. Confidentiality was an enormous concern for me while assessing the value of my company and courting prospective buyers. Harbor Healthcare Consultants respected my desire to keep the sale confidential and understood that “word on the street” about my company’s availability could cause discord and loss of employees. If you are looking to maximize your profit for all the years you put in then I recommend talking with the team that allowed me to retire early.
If you would like to ask me about my experience please email me at scoufos@hotmail.com, because I am now retired, it may take a few days to get back to you.

Perseverance
Ira,
A much deserved yet overdue thank you for your continued help and support of me with the questions that I ask of you from time to time. I appreciate your patience and perseverance in ensuring that you find the right answer for me. Although I never had the privilege of working with you when you helped my father with the sale of Medco Pharmacy, I can clearly see why you were chosen by my father and the instrumental role you played.
Thank you for all your help, it is both noted and very much appreciated.

Very Insightful
I worked with Harbor Consulting on the sale of my pharmacy. Ira was a great person to work with. He was responsive to requests from both sides of the transaction, and his insights from previous transactions helped to bring the parties to an agreement. Stephanie helped to present the financial information in a format clear and concise to prospective purchasers. I would not hesitate to utilize their services in the future.

Harbor Healthcare Consultants efforts enabled all involved to successfully and timely orchestrate and consummate the transaction. I applaud Stephanie and Ira for all of their hard work from start to finish.

Tremendous Work Ethic
As a Nursing Home chain operator, we decided after many years of owning and operating an institutional pharmacy that it wasn’t a core business that we wished to continue.
We were approached several times by potential buyers but we couldn’t seem to develop a transaction that was worth our while.
Once we started working with Ira and his team, we were able to develop a model that was both valuable to us as sellers but more importantly even more desirable by a potential buyer. Our value was enhanced by his team of professionals who focused on the tangible and intangible value of our company. Most importantly, Harbor Healthcare was able to accentuate the strategic value of acquiring our pharmacy to the buyer.
I cannot say enough about the work ethic and support that Ira and Harbor Healthcare provided us before, during and after the transaction. Throughout the process, we gained a mutual respect for each other and a friendship that I value greatly.

Additional Boost
When we started the process of choosing a representative to sell our business we interviewed several national companies.
Ira and his team presented with the knowledge of our business, the experience of successful purchases and the confidence that they could work with us to accomplish the sale we desired.
Ira and his team always maintained a manner of professionalism as well as an understanding of our issues as the sale progressed. Ira’s flexible willingness to work with our ideas kept us focused on the outcome and with the strategic input of his team we are able to successfully position our company to be a desirable addition to several buyers.
Personally and professionally we believe that working with Ira and his team gave us the additional boost that resulted in the successful sale of our company.
