They have lived up to our expectations in every manner. Provident was professional, communicative and effective - we could not be more pleased with the result," commented Daniel Jewelewicz, MD.

"The world of private equity is relationship driven. These PE firms know which investment bankers they can trust and which companies they prefer to work with. Provident has a stellar reputation and commands the respect of all private equity companies in healthcare. Provident was accessible, responsive, thoughtful, creative, and supportive throughout our entire process. They were honest, ethical, and a pleasure to deal with," added Steven Rosenfeld, MD.
