Hello,
We’re Dr Ed Cantelo, a Dr and a Chartered Accountant and Chartered Tax adviser 🤯and Dr Tommy Perkins, a GP.
We left medical school with massive debts and coming from humble backgrounds we struggled with our finances.
We spent hours and thousands of pounds becoming experts at managing our own money. Optimising our tax, learning how to invest to grow our money and securing our financial future, without working harder as doctors.
Sorting our own finances gave us the financial freedom to choose to work fewer hours as doctors, so in 2014 we started Medics’ Money to help our doctor colleagues sort out their finances as well.
Doctors didn’t have time to listen to >180 hours of Medics’ Money podcasts, or read the >1,000 blogs on our website or hundreds of emails.
Doctors wanted to ask experts questions but they didn’t want, or need, to pay for full financial advice.
Doctors wanted to manage their own investments, saving thousands in fees, but didn’t know how.
Doctors wanted a clear plan to follow to get the financial future they deserve.
So using our expertise we developed the Medics’ Money Financial Wellbeing course.
Spread over 12 weeks, we’ll teach you everything you need to know and do to get the financial future you deserve, without working harder.
Flexible learning that fits in with your life. Watch live in our private online community or catch the replays at a time that suits you.
Access to our private community of financial experts and other doctors on course to transform their financial future.

Dr Sharma is an ST7 O+G registrar who wanted to set her 2 young children up financially. So 5 years ago she opened a Junior Cash ISA having searched a “best ISA table ” on a money saving website. She thought she was giving her kids a tax efficient investment for their future and saved £100 a month regularly for them.
And then Dr Sharma saw this graph from the “How to invest for your kids” bonus module of our course.👇
And Dr Sharma recognised her mistake(s)
Mistake 1 – Historically, cash has not been a growing investment.
Dr Sharma thought cash was a safe investment.
But as the graph above shows, cash has historically been a terrible investment, and thanks to inflation cash has lost value in real terms. So despite contributing regularly to her kids’ Cash Junior ISA they were worth less today in real terms than when she started. The course gave Dr Sharma the confidence to manage her kids’ investments and she set up her kids with a Junior Stocks and Shares ISA. This change alone is likely to make her kids £tens of thousands of pounds from age 0-18. But there was a bigger and far more lucrative change that Dr Sharma made for her kids’ financial future…
Mistake 2 – Missing out on valuable tax relief.
Sharma thought a cash Junior ISA was the most tax efficient way to save for her kids. But the course also taught Sharma about Junior SIPPs which is a tax loophole that means the government actually give your child up to £720 in pension tax relief (at time of writing) – effectively £720 of free money that HMRC put into your kids Junior SIPP.
When Dr Sharma kids turn 18 they’ll have a five figure amount to give them a head start in life. And when they retire, they’ll have a pension worth many hundreds of thousands of pounds. Best of all the course showed Dr Sharma how to manage this herself on a platform that charges no platform fees! The whole thing is automated and leaves Dr Sharma free to spend more time with her kids and less time worrying about her finances.
Dr Rhoda is an experienced A+E consultant who came to the UK from Singapore. She’d always been interested in her finances and was very proficient in her understanding of the Singapore financial system. However she found the UK tax system difficult to navigate despite following Medics’ Money’s podcast and YouTube. An unexpected tax bill led her to come on our course.

Poor financial wellbeing costs the NHS millions. This is why YOUR NHS study leave budget should fund the Medics’ Money Financial Wellbeing course.
The cost of living crisis and years of real terms pay erosion mean financial worries are common across all groups of NHS staff. Financial worries are associated with a myriad of negative outcomes and research shows that those with financial worries are less productive at work, take more sick days, have higher rates of depression and anxiety and are much more likely to leave their current employer. This is bad news for the NHS, that already faces a recruitment and retention crisis.
The financial cost to the NHS is huge. Research commissioned by NHS England estimates this to be around £2 million per 5,000 staff which equates to £500 million annually across the whole workforce. NHS Employers acknowledge this financial stress doesn’t just affect those on a low wage.
The NHS Long Term plan specifically mentions “measuring staff health and wellbeing” to improve staff morale and retention and 95% of trust leaders surveyed were “extremely concerned” about staff financial wellbeing. The NHS recommends all organisations include financial wellbeing support as part of delivering the NHS Long Term plan.
A sponsored hour long presentation by a commissioned salesperson is unlikely to improve your financial wellbeing.
The Medics Money Financial Wellbeing course is structured, independent financial well-being education that will help you to:
Understand the tax you pay and how to utilise legitimate tax deductions that can save NHS staff up to 60%
Understand the valuable benefits the NHS pension provides as part of your overall NHS renumeration package.
Learn how to build wealth for the long term.
So if you have any trouble in getting study budget funding for the Medics’ Money Financial Wellbeing course, ask your NHS employer what their Financial Wellbeing plan is as recommended by NHS Employers https://www.nhsemployers.org/articles/financial-education-and-wellbeing
