I’m Kristi Allan, a financial planner who specializes in working with optometrists and also a proud parent of one. My son is currently an optometry student at the University of Houston College of Optometry, and like many future ODs, he had a moment of panic about the amount of debt he’ll be graduating with.
I told him what I tell the optometrists I work with: yes, it’s a big investment but it’s one that’s absolutely worth it with the right financial plan in place.
Seeing this through both a personal and professional lens has given me an even deeper appreciation for the financial challenges ODs face and the incredible opportunity they have to build wealth and financial freedom. I'm not working with optometrists and their finances blindly.
While this is written specifically for ODs, this guide is the same for anyone in any medical field. For example, just replace optometry for dentistry.
My hope is that you will find some value and insight.
