About Dr Jeff Anzalone

Dr. Jeff is a Louisiana-based periodontist, real estate investor, and founder of DebtFreeDoctor.com, a financial education platform for doctors and high-income professionals. After a skiing accident nearly ended his clinical career, Jeff realized that being debt-free is not the same as being financially free. Determined to protect his family’s future, he began building multiple streams of passive income through real estate syndications and other cash-flowing assets. Today, he helps medical and dental professionals replace active income, reduce tax burdens, and achieve financial independence so they can stop trading time for money and start living life on their own terms.
