In partnership with the New York Chapter American College of Surgeons, Altfest Personal Wealth Management is offering an interactive webinar series that aims to answer surgeons’ financial questions and provide peace of mind during this uncertain time.

Built upon the American College of Surgeons’ Economic Survival Strategies in the COVID World initiative, each virtual event focuses on a different area of a surgeon’s financial life, and is led by an Altfest Personal Wealth Management expert in that field who is ready to take attendees’ questions.
