Paying down educational debt. Managing cash flow and saving for the future. Minimizing the impact of taxes on a physician’s often-substantial income. These skills are vital to the success of early-career physicians, yet none are covered in medical school. Members of the Resident and Fellow Society and Young Physicians Society asked for education about financial topics, and ISMA listened! We’re pleased to announce the 2022 Financial Planning Series of CME webinars, presented by certified financial planner Jack Vogel of Doctors Without Quarters (DWOQ). 

DWOQ is a financial consultancy specializing in advising graduate medical professionals. The company partners with medical schools, teaching hospitals and national associations to provide education to thousands of students and graduates each year.

The three webinars in this series are free to ISMA members, although nonmembers may attend for $75 per session. They are conveniently scheduled from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. on April 21, May 5, and May 19, and each is accredited for 1.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Registration is required.
