About Us
We exist to have a positive impact on people's lives by building long-term relationships with our clients and our community, leaving them better off for having partnered with us.
David Maurice Bluteau CIM,CFP,MBA, Senior Wealth Advisor and Portfolio Manager
“My wife’s father was a doctor, as was her uncle, and both her brother and sister-in-law are physicians, so we appreciate the dynamics …”
In working with physicians, we respect their time more than anything. We know they are busy, dedicated to their work, and looking for support to be able to live their life without getting mired in the details of their finances.
We see our relationships with our clients as professional friendships, and enjoy seeing the turning points in their lives, and ensuring the financial aspects of life are handled for them so they can enjoy the journey, knowing they are on track. The best moments we have in our work is talking about key events in our clients’ lives and sharing their pleasure in the achievement – and sometimes even getting a hug!
Our conversations and meetings give us space to understand what is important to each of them and working to ensure they provide the security for their families that is so meaningful to them.
Darren Caseley, CIM, Wealth Advisor and Portfolio Manager
“Physicians are part of the fabric of a vibrant community and to be able to assist and serve those who help us so much is incredibly meaningful…”
The purpose of the business to us is the ability to bring moving parts of a financial life together, bridging the personal goals with the present lifestyle. This is important as success from the perspective of wealth is more than returns, it is about the choices we make as to how we use our cashflow to build a life that matters personally and being able to play a role in helping physicians achieve that lifestyle for them. Seeing someone succeed, being a part of that, through our relationships, is rewarding. And watching people gain confidence, knowing they can live now and in the future their way, is an incredible feeling.
For us, we work on solving problems, finding options for solutions, and providing perspective for people to succeed on the terms that have meaning to them. It is about family, wellness, education, and bringing a level of care and excellence that adds value to their lives, operating at a higher standard. The idea of service is lacking in our world today, and we focus on providing service to add value.
