Vincere Wealth Management

Hi, my name is Isaiah Douglass. I am a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and Fee-Only advisor. I left a large national firm to found a solo financial planning firm in 2018 to pursue a planning approach that is dedicated to identifying ways to grow the net worth of veterinarians and dentists. In the summer of 2020, I merged with another financial advisor and became a partner in Vincere Wealth Management. I co-founded The Veterinarian Financial Advisor Network in 2020. I am the host of the weekly podcast The Veterinarian Success Podcast which interviews and discusses topics related to clinical, business, financial, and personal of the lives of veterinarians. I am deeply involved in speaking within veterinary medicine via students, podcasts, video interviews, and spoken at the Veterinary Financial Summit conference. I am on the Communications Committee within VetPartners to help deliver the message of the organization to membership, but also the veterinary industry.
