Simplify Your Finances, Get Expert Guidance, Focus on What Matters Most
As a physician or busy professional, your days are filled with responsibility—caring for others, managing your practice, supporting your family. But when it comes to your own financial health, it’s easy to push things to the side.
At D.R. Harris & Co., we seek to help lighten that load.
We specialize in personalized financial guidance for professionals like you—so you can stop stressing over finances and start focusing on the people and passions that matter most to you.

When life is full, your finances shouldn't add to the stress.
Below are the three challenges we hear most from our prospective clients.
If any of these problems sound familiar you might benefit from scheduling an introductory call with us. They usually roughly correlate with where our client are in their careers and financial journeys.
Pre-retirees (those within 5 years of retirement)
Your Retirement Shouldn't Begin With a Question Mark.
After 20 or 30 years of receiving a regular paycheck, the idea of giving it up can be unsettling—even when you've saved well.
The question isn't simply,
“Do I have enough?”
It's:
“How do I turn what I've accumulated into a reliable income I can count on for the rest of my life?”
For physicians approaching retirement, we help bring the pieces together—including Social Security, retirement accounts, investments, taxes, and your spending needs—to build a retirement-income strategy designed to replace the paycheck you're used to receiving.
You shouldn't have to guess whether your retirement plan will work.
If you're within 5–10 years of retirement and want to know what your retirement paycheck could look like, let's build the plan together.
Mid Career Physicians (usually in your late 40s or early 50s)
You've Worked Hard to Get Here. Now It's Time to Get Organized.
Retirement used to feel like something that was decades away.
Now college tuition is getting closer. Retirement is suddenly within sight. Your investments are spread across different accounts. And the financial decisions that once felt easy to put off are starting to feel much more important.
This is often the point when trying to manage everything yourself becomes less about saving money—and more about making sure nothing important gets missed.
We help physicians and other mid career professionals organize the moving pieces, prioritize competing goals, and build a clear plan for the years ahead—so you know what needs to happen between now and retirement.
If you're in your 40s or 50s and feel like your finances have gotten too important to manage on your own, let's get everything organized.
Early Career Physicians (first 10 years of their career)
You Don't Need to Have It All Figured Out. You Need a Plan.
As a young physician, you may be earning more than you ever have—but that doesn't make the financial decisions any easier.
You may be thinking about buying a home, paying down student loans, saving for retirement, investing, building an emergency fund, and figuring out how much you can actually afford to spend. The challenge isn't finding another financial decision to make. It's knowing which decisions should come first.
We help physicians build a financial approach around their priorities so they can make progress on the things that matter most—without feeling like they're constantly wondering whether they're putting their money in the right place.
If you're a physician early in your career and want to know what to prioritize with your money, let's talk.
You Don't Have to Be an Expert to Get Your Money Working for You.
Some physicians are naturally interested in investing. Others aren't—and that's okay.
You may have spent years keeping a large portion of your savings in cash or bank accounts because investing felt complicated, risky, or simply like something you would learn more about “someday.” Meanwhile, the years went by, and you may now feel a little embarrassed that you haven't done more.
There's nothing to be embarrassed about. You don't need to become an expert. You need a guide you can trust.
We help physicians who are ready to stop avoiding their finances, understand what they own, and develop a sensible investment strategy they're comfortable with.
You don't have to know everything before you get started. That's what we're here for.
Getting financial advice is not scary - you just need a guide. We've done this many times before.
