Committed to physicians.


Through Doctors Nova Scotia’s partnership with MD Financial Management (MD) and Scotiabank Healthcare+, you have access to comprehensive financial planning, financial advice, and education and banking solutions geared to the needs of physicians and medical learners.

With more than 50 years of experience supporting physicians, MD is the only national financial services firm dedicated exclusively to the financial well-being of Canada’s physicians and their families. A leading bank in the Americas, Scotiabank helps its customers, their families and their communities achieve success through a broad range of advice, products and services. Combining MD’s unparalleled understanding of physicians’ financial needs with Scotiabank’s deep banking expertise allows us to provide a robust suite of comprehensive financial services tailored specifically to physicians’ needs and circumstances, including the uniquely co-created Scotiabank Healthcare+ Physician Banking Program and the innovative Medicus Pension Plan™.

Designed specifically for Canada’s incorporated physicians, the Medicus Pension Plan is a multi-employer pension plan that will provide incorporated physicians with a unique opportunity to access predictable lifetime retirement income, including financial protection for their families. Plan development is underway and is expected to launch in 2023, subject to regulatory approvals.**

If you’re a physician, contact an MD* or Scotiabank advisor to find out how they can help. If you’re a medical student or resident, you can contact MD’s team of Advisors and Early Career Specialists, who are dedicated to supporting you.
