Nolan Announced as Winner in the 23rd Annual M&A Advisor Awards


Aravind Nair Award

Nolan & Associates was named a winner for the M&A Advisor’s Healthcare/Life Sciences Deal of the Year for their role in the sale of MSDR to AMN Healthcare. The awards were presented at a Black-Tie Awards Gala during the 2024 Future of Dealmaking Summit on November 20, 2024, in New York City.

MSDR, specializing in locum tenens services across the United States, sought a partner with the infrastructure and vision to unlock additional growth and platforms for employees.

AMN Healthcare is the nation’s leading innovator in total talent solutions for healthcare organizations.

Deals of this magnitude highlight the critical importance of thorough preparation, market insight, and aligning with our clients’ objectives. This achievement demonstrates our commitment to delivering exceptional value and reflects the strength of the teams that brought this complex transaction to a successful close,” said Patrick Nolan, President of Nolan & Associates.
