A permanent home for your business
Investing in health and wellbeing to serve future generations
Our approach
At Shoreham Partners, we think differently about building in care. We know how hard it is to maintain exceptional patient care and sustainable business growth. That’s why we invest for the long term, to create lasting value across market cycles.
Our approach allows leaders to focus on what matters most: delivering outstanding care while building enduring businesses.
No arbitrary timelines. No rushed exits. Just focused, sustainable growth.
Excellence takes time
We seek out exceptional care businesses ready for their next stage of growth. Our philosophy is clear: find proven companies, protect their core, and build for the decades ahead.
Care needs more long-term thinking. Client outcomes and investor timelines rarely align. We partner with permanent and patient capital providers who are dedicated to creating lasting value in care through their investments.
How we partner
We try to keep things simple. We acquire businesses with the intent to own them for decades. We partner with owners at an inflexion point - we focus on business-building, so they can focus on clients and families. We bring patient capital and strategic vision. And we honor the legacy our partners have built.
What this means:
Clear, straightforward deals. No complex structures.
Fair valuation expectations. We don't participate in auctions.
Minimum 12-month seller transitions with a flexible structure.
Direct communication, and a single point of contact.
Quick decisions - it’s a yes or a no.

Systems that scale while keeping your 'small practice feel'
Most healthcare providers need robust systems to grow. But systematizing a practice often feels at odds with maintaining personalized care.
The reality is simple: good systems enable practices to stay personal as they scale.
