This article is sponsored by Forme Financial, a highly specialized advisory that works only with physicians.

Whether in early practice or nearing retirement, physicians face far more career and financial complexities than other professions. But until now they were limited to financial advisors who offer essentially the same solutions to all their clients, regardless of profession.

Forme Financial has a different approach. We are a highly specialized advisory that works only with physicians. Forme understands the uniqueness of a physician’s career arc and the interconnected nature of your financial decisions. We provide a comprehensive approach to wealth building specifically curated for the needs of physicians with tailored advice for their ever-changing journey. Our services include investments, taxes, insurance, banking, lending, estate—all in one place and all seamlessly integrated. There is even a service called “career advisory” that provides compensation benchmarking, contract review, and negotiation advice.

Medical school prepares us to be doctors, but it does not prepare us for the many and complex financial decisions we face. Do any of these questions resonate with you?

“I’m looking at my post-residency options now. How do I know what a fair compensation package looks like and how do I negotiate for it?”

“In a few years, I will be making a lot more money. How should I think about things like paying down medical school debt versus investing for a higher return?”

I’m nervous there might be something I’m missing. As a practicing physician, how do I fully protect my assets and my income?

“I was shocked by my tax bill this year. Is there anything I can do to better plan for next year?”
