As a physician, you have many demands for your time.

Financial issues are a constant thought. 

Protecting  and planning  for yourself and your family from financial uncertainties can be daunting….and as the old saying goes “if you don’t know where you are going, any road will get you there”. 

While it is important to learn from our experiences….it is even more important to learn from the experiences of others.

Insurance, investments, retirement plans can create confusion, foster frustration and distract your drive towards success. 

But you don’t have to go it alone.  Money is a tool….not a goal.

If you would like to know more…you should. If you would like to learn more…..we can show you how.

Pat McCabe has been helping his clients plan and reach their financial goals for nearly 10 years, while recently joining the Resolve Team to specialize in assisting physicians with their investment and retirement strategies.  Whether it is a young doctor directly out of training trying to navigate the complex financial world they are entering, or a veteran specialist late in their career who needs to make sure the right pieces are in place for a successful transition.

The Resolve Team is there every step of the way.

Pat got his start in the financial industry by helping seniors navigate their healthcare and insurance needs in retirement. It wasn’t long before his desire grew to include investment management to what he could offer his clients.

He then joined a national investment management firm and spent four years there before joining the independent Dakota Advisory Team at RIA Advisory Group.

His career has been spent helping his clients on two main fronts. First, by deciphering what their main goals are and setting up their initial financial plan to get out of debt and build wealth on their front end of their career. Second, on the other end, creating the roadmap to protect the wealth they have grown and strategically create lifetime income on a tax efficient basis.

Pat grew up in Minnesota and earned his bachelor’s degree from the University of Minnesota, Crookston, and a master’s degree from St. Cloud State University. He and his wife Becky have been married for 11 years and they are blessed with three beautiful daughters.
