“I had the incredible opportunity to work with Mary & the Saadat & Associates Team for over two years to help initiate and complete the sale of my medical practice. Mary's strategic hands-on approach to business and staff development helped my business grow and gain efficiency to maximize profitability. Mary is very organized and helped me greatly to stay on track to reach my goals. She kept me accountable which at times was difficult, however, her encouragement and expertise allowed me to achieve the necessary goals required to sell my business. As a business owner of over 30 years, Mary's knowledge and background were a key part of my ability to sell my practice. Mary's strategic hands-on approach to reorganization of infrastructure, staff training & development, leadership training and culture shift helped my business grow in revenue, decrease costs, and gain efficiencies. With Mary's expertise, encouragement, caring and strategic planning I sold my business and realize a dream come true! I am so grateful to have worked with such an incredible professional! I highly recommend Mary and Saadat & Associates as an honest, trustworthy partner."

"Mary is a very knowledgeable and detailed oriented senior executive. During a very challenging time when we worked together, Mary was always professional and positive even during a reduction in force. Her positive influence kept the employees focused on the end result. I would highly recommend Mary and if the opportunity arose again; I would work with her again should our paths cross."
“Saadat & Associates has been an invaluable asset to our office to assist my medical, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology practice. We had recently undergone significant expansion but were struggling with very high overhead and resultant low profitability. Mary came in with energy and expertise and went to work. Mary's combination of a loving yet no-nonsense personality was refreshing and effective. She observed processes in the front and back office, office management, and spent time with each staff member. After a period of observation and a thorough audit she went to work to help put in place processes, role designations, assignments, and created accountability systems and provided oversight to implement the needed changes impacting profitability. In just a few short months, we have already been able to reduce overhead, increase productivity, and grow our cosmetic practice with the new processes put in place. Saadat & Associates is the best!"
