Shearwater Capital was founded in 1999 by two radiologists to serve the investing needs of physicians and their families. The company founders have first-hand experience with many of the financial issues and challenges commonly faced by physicians. They also have years of experience in helping other physicians manage their financial assets. This provides Shearwater Capital with a unique ability to help our physician clients to secure their financial futures.
