About Physicians Financial Partners

In 2007, Shannon LeRoy and Doug Lewis identified the need for financial services tailored to the physician-owned healthcare industry. With extensive expertise in finance and healthcare operations, they founded Physicians Capital to provide commercial loans to individual ASCs and their physician partners. Over more than fourteen years, they have financed hundreds of loans.

Following the sale of Physicians Capital, they formed Physicians Financial Partners. They expanded their commercial lending model to include access to a number of financial institutions with ready capital. Today, they provide ASCs and physician owners with cash-flow financing at the most competitive terms available.
