Todd Doobrow with the DINKs
Send us Fan Mail 🎉We had such a great time talking to this week’s Humpday Happy Hour™ guest, Certified Financial Planner® fiduciary, Todd Doobrow. As the spouse of a dentist who practices Periodontics and Implant dentistry in Cullman, AL, Todd has a unique glimpse into the dental world that many CFPs don’t get. His work allows him to guide dentists and effectively show them their "blind spots" when it comes to running their finances more efficiently. Best thing about working with Tom? He works independently, so your relationship is more transparent than if you’re tied to a larger company. Being independent allows him access to the most up-to-date product offerings and technology. He provides a real-time, online, integrated platform to make sure your dental practice is equipped with comprehensive financial planning. By using these programs, his clients know where they stand in relation to their goals any day, time, or place. Interested in working with Todd? Visit his website: https://www.curatoadvisory.com/ Mention that you heard about him from the DINKs to get a free initial consultation!
