The Advisor Who Has Been in Your Shoes
“Most business brokers have never owned a business. Most pharmacists have never sold one. I have done both — and that changes everything about how I advise my clients.”
— Dr. Steve Rodriguez, CM&AA
Dr. Steve Rodriguez is the founder of Lone Star Mergers & Acquisitions and serves as The Nation's Only Pharmacist Certified M&A Advisor. With over 25 years of experience spanning community, institutional, and corporate pharmacy across Texas, Dr. Steve brings a depth of operational and transactional expertise that no generalist broker can match.
His advisory career is grounded in a remarkable personal achievement: the founding of MedPro Pharmacy in 2006 and its sale in 2018 at a 10X multiple. That experience, combined with his clinical background and formal M&A training, gives Dr. Steve a uniquely empathetic perspective on the emotional and financial complexity of selling a business you have built from the ground up.
In 2024, Dr. Steve founded BuySell RX LLC, a specialized advisory firm dedicated exclusively to pharmacy transactions. Building on that foundation, he established Lone Star Mergers & Acquisitions to serve Texas business owners across all industries, from Main Street businesses to Lower Middle Market companies with enterprise values up to $50 million.
