Financial Planner
For Doctors

Each person’s individual financial situation is different, and you deserve an advisor who will consider the unique factors that affect you, including your career. If you’re a doctor, especially if you run a private practice, there are many things your financial planner needs to consider to develop the best strategy for your needs. Working with an advisor who takes a holistic approach and considers your individual circumstances is an ideal path to long-term financial well-being.

The Benefits Of A Financial Advisor

Having an experienced professional who can assist you with managing your money is a valuable asset.

At Wellspring, we strive to provide six critical benefits to all of our clients, regardless of their career path:

Organization

We work with you to define your financial needs, wants, and plans, then use these to bring structure to your financial life.

Investment Advising

Having an advisor to help you stay on track with your financial plan, and who will review your progress, makes it easier to follow through on financial commitments.

Objectivity

Emotionally-driven financial decisions are not ideal, and having insight from an outside perspective can help you avoid making such choices.

Proactivity

We can help you plan ahead for life transitions that you know are coming, and also regularly assess potential changes or events you might not anticipate.

Education

A well-informed client is our best client and we provide specific knowledge to help you understand your financial situation and our recommendations.

Partnership

We view our relationships with our clients as partnerships and take the time to genuinely understand your philosophy, background, needs, and life goals.

Key Financial Considerations For Doctors

The benefits above apply across different careers and in addition to these principles, we also consider your unique situation.

For doctors, some common considerations include:

Loan Repayment

After many years of schooling, most physicians have student loans. A financial planner can help you strategize how to allocate your funds to pay these down over time. We will consider the interest rate of the loans compared to other opportunities and will create a plan with your best interest in mind. In addition to student loans, doctors with their own practices may have business loans that also need to be factored into their financial plans.

Retirement

Planning for retirement is a key consideration for individuals regardless of their careers. For doctors, there are additional factors that could influence your savings and investment strategies. As we create your plan, we’ll ask you questions to determine what your goals are and will give thoughtful individualized advice.

Insurance

Doctors often benefit from robust disability insurance coverage. This is because your livelihood is closely tied to your ability to work, and the job is more specialized than it is for many other career paths. Your financial advisor can help you examine your options for insurance and will help you determine if you have enough coverage, or if perhaps you have too much coverage for your needs.

Practice Ownership or Partnership

If you are a partner or owner of a private practice, your financial situation has additional complexities to consider. Tax planning is essential and you’ll also need to consider not only your personal finances but also those of your business. One of our skilled advisors can help you navigate this.
