John Perry’s practice is primarily focused on healthcare mergers and acquisitions and joint ventures, with a particular focus on diagnostic imaging, radiation therapy, urgent care, and ambulatory surgery centers. In addition, John performs healthcare due diligence in support of the firm’s representation of commercial lenders operating in the healthcare space.

He has also counseled healthcare systems regarding corporate and medical staff governance, credentialing and peer review, licensing and accreditation, reimbursement, and related compliance matters, as well as represented a broad range of providers in medical malpractice and licensure matters.

John’s varied interactions with healthcare bankers and investors, members of boards of directors, physician and non-physician executives, and front-line nurses and their managers have provided him with a broad understanding of the healthcare industry and the challenges faced at every level.
