ATLANTA, August 23, 2017 – Continuing the expansion of its healthcare services platform, Ackerman & Co. has hired Brett Buchwald as a vice president specializing in medical office investment sales. As part of Ackerman’s healthcare division, Ackerman Medical, he will represent both buyers and sellers in healthcare real estate transactions.
