I met Bob Doroghazi when he dropped the first draft of his manuscript of The Physician's Guide to Investing: A Practical Approach to Building Wealth at my office. I will have to admit I was a bit skeptical: a physician writing a book on investments? During that first meeting with Bob, it became evident that he had been a successful physician and a successful investor, so I agreed to take a look at the book. I was in for a pleasant surprise. Bob's manuscript was easy to read and had specific advice useful to physicians, interspersed with lots of practical tidbits for any investor. Having written three college-level finance and investment texts, I was excited to be in on a project aimed at offering practical investment advice to a more general, yet specialized, audience. I had high expectations for the book and am pleased to say that I believe Bob has delivered a book that every physician interested in building wealth and protecting assets should read. Bob is a straight shooter; he tells it like he sees it in his book. Some doctors might be indignant on reading his statements, such as 'Physicians sometimes have no idea of their limitations. This type of arrogance and ego can result in investing disaster.' However, if you do have these limitations (and most professionals, even college professors, do), then reading Bob's book will help you recognize situations in which they can lead to poor investment decisions.
