We sit down with W. Ben Utley, a certified financial planner specializing in helping physicians navigate the unique financial challenges of their careers. We explore how doctors can break free from the pressure of paying off debt while maintaining strong relationships with their families, define what “enough money” truly means, and find balance between financial success and personal fulfillment. Ben shares valuable insights on aligning financial goals with core values, avoiding burnout, and building a life that prioritizes both wealth and well-being.

W. Ben Utley is a certified financial planner.

He discusses the KevinMD article, “How physicians can find true happiness beyond wealth.”

Our presenting sponsor is DAX Copilot by Microsoft.

Do you spend more time on administrative tasks like clinical documentation than you do with patients? You’re not alone. Clinicians report spending up to two hours on administrative tasks for each hour of patient care. Microsoft is committed to helping clinicians restore the balance with DAX Copilot, an AI-powered, voice-enabled solution that automates clinical documentation and workflows.

70 percent of physicians who use DAX Copilot say it improves their work-life balance while reducing feelings of burnout and fatigue. Patients love it too! 93 percent of patients say their physician is more personable and conversational, and 75 percent of physicians say it improves patient experiences.

Help restore your work-life balance with DAX Copilot, your AI assistant for automated clinical documentation and workflows.
