Summary

• My passion is sharing my story as a disabled anesthesiologist with physicians, dentists and medical professionals around the nation. Disability Insurance is a significant decision with serious consequences to a physician to protect their most valuable asset; themselves. Getting the absolute best advice on the best disability insurance policy should be on every physician's financial life must-do checklist. However, being on disability is unlike anything else in life; especially for the intelligent, hard-working and ethical personalities found in modern medicine and for that, one needs the best advocate they can have for themselves and their family. I truly enjoy teaching my colleagues in medicine and dentistry about how to best ways to protect their incomes. I also continue to voluntarily assist businesses through pro-bono consulting with local entrepreneurs in Ohio, to help start-up businesses grow and flourish. I have been happy to share my experiences in Medicine, Law and Business with my friends, family and community. Assisting friends develop their futures & businesses and to imagine and create jobs help me with the loss of my own medical career.
