About Wealthmed
We are the ultimate team of specialists dedicated to looking after you, while you look after others.
Established in 2011, Wealthmed is a financial planning practice specializing in integrated advice for medical, dental, and allied health professionals.
Wealthmed opened it’s doors in January 2011 with a small dedicated team of three, providing guidance on financial planning, superannuation, investment choices, risk management, loan structuring and property investment.
Our team deals with professional complexity and financial challenges our clients face every day. We identify our client’s financial needs, and design strategies with our collective expertise to help our clients have the best life possible with the money they have while they are here. We know that the right financial guidance can set our clients up for life!
With decades of professional experience our team makes a real difference to the lives of our clients.
The Wealthmed Journey

The Start
A Multi-Disciplinary Firm.
That was always the goal when Wealthmed was founded in 2011 and what we’ve worked towards ever since.
The advice version of a private hospital, a union of specialists providing the highest level of support to doctors across accounting, investing, finance, business services and more.

The Goal
Specialists Deserve Specialists
Drawing on our experience, we wanted to specialise in specific financial services to support medical and allied health staff to provide a coordinated case managed approach to financial advice.

The Principles
The principles behind what we do.
We’ve expanded that starting team of team three staff to a vibrant team of twenty-eight is reward for the belief in a few important things:
- To bring together the best accountants and financial advisers we could.
- Ensure each and every person is dedicated to clients first and everything else a very distant second.
- To tailor work on a case-by-case basis and make sure everything we do is integrated.
- To make it about achieving clear goals and doing it for those we know how to help best.

The team
Which got us to where we are now.
Local professionals helping medical professionals to manage what they need to succeed.
A coordinated approach under one roof including: tax and accounting, insurance and risk management, finance, and business management.
