Jordan Frey MD is a plastic surgeon in Buffalo, NY with a focus on complex microsurgery and breast reconstruction. At the end of his 11 years of medical training, Jordan realized that he was a burned out poor physician despite his high income with >$500.000 in debt, no savings or investments, and no financial education. That's when Jordan and his wife, Selenid, began their financial comeback, increasing their net worth by over $1,000,000 in less than 2 years. The best surprise though was how improved financial well-being impacted their overall well-being and made Jordan a better doctor. Jordan then founded and runs The Prudent Plastic Surgeon blog with a goal of helping all healthcare professionals improve their financial well-being and achieve financial freedom.
