Blaine Lipkin
Blaine Lipkin has been helping physicians achieve financial freedom since 2011. His core specialty is helping physicians protect their income with disability Insurance policies. He is a frequent adept speaker with GME programs as well as various medical associations.
As Blaine acquired experience working for various Insurance carriers, he decided the best way to serve his physician clients would be as an independent broker specializing in disability Insurance coverage.
As an independent broker, Blaine understands that each client has a set of circumstances both personal & professional. Therefore, he analyzes all options and assists his clients to implement the best strategy possible.
Blaine also partners with other advisors to help structure and underwrite disability policies for their clients. His personal vexation is agents that just want to sell one company, even when it’s not in the best interest of the client, and when advisors try to be an expert in all areas of insurance or finances.
Blaine currently lives in Manhattan, frequently travels, enjoys skiing & golf, and trying many new outdoor activities without fear (why not has excellent disability coverage).
Dr. Scott Rothenberg
Dr. Scott Rothenberg always had a passion for science, education, and service. Naturally, a career in medicine piqued his interest and highlighted his personality. He is a dual-degreed, board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon. Originally from Maryland, Dr. Rothenberg received his Doctorate in Dental Surgery from the University of Maryland, Baltimore, graduating in the top ten percent of his class. He subsequently completed a 6-year residency program in oral and maxillofacial surgery at the New York University Medical Center/Bellevue Hospital and earned his medical degree from the prestigious New York University School of Medicine.
During his educational endeavors, Dr. Rothenberg learned the importance of planning and being prepared for the future. While in his residency, he was introduced to a group of trusted experts who helped set him up for success and ultimately prepared him for any unexpected life events. Disability insurance provided Dr. Rothenberg with peace of mind, both personally and professionally.
Dr. Rothenberg has performed countless surgeries and has successfully implemented science-backed research into the operating room. He has also cultivated a seamless patient experience based on transparency, resulting in exceptional surgical outcomes.
At the height of his career, with years of earning potential in front of him, the past decade of repetitive movement began to take its toll. Dr. Rothenberg has sustained several orthopedic injuries, each requiring him to be out of work for months at a time.

Dr. Rothenberg currently lives in Manhattan, and enjoys fitness, spending time with family, and hiking with his dog Krome.
Our philosophy / The Problem
The problems physicians historically faced when obtaining coverage is that they would meet with a local Insurance broker. That broker, while licensed, would rarely be an expert on Disability coverage, and would often push one insurance company. The agent would not follow up to service the client, but just to sell more products that could sometimes be unnecessary. Our philosophy is to put the client first. Understand their situation, educate them on their options, and use our knowledge and skill set to help guide them to the best coverage design.
