Stop Overpaying Taxes: A Tax Strategist Reveals the Strategies Doctors Are Missing Featuring Rachel Michaelov, EP 274

from Thriving Practice with Tracy Cherpeski · host Tracy Cherpeski

Here's a question most practice owners don't ask their accountant: Do I actually owe this much? In this episode, Tracy Cherpeski talks with Rachel Michaelov, an Enrolled Agent and tax strategist who works exclusively with high-earning healthcare professionals. Rachel is the founder of Empire Tax Advisors and Practice Wealth Partners, and she has one mission: help doctors and dentists stop overpaying their taxes.  Rachel shares why most healthcare providers work with reactive CPAs instead of proactive tax strategists, the three most expensive mistakes she sees practice owners making, and strategies like cost segregation and R&D credits that could save you hundreds of thousands of dollars. She walks through a real example: a doctor with a $1.2 million tax liability who ended up with a $24,000 refund.  If you've ever felt like financial stress is stealing your time, your peace of mind, or your ability to reward your team, this conversation is for you. Rachel gets real about why this matters for your life, not just your spreadsheet.    Read the full show notes, memorable quotes, and key takeaways.  Connect With Us:  Be a Guest on the Show  Thriving Practice Community  Schedule Strategy Session with Tracy  Tracy’s LinkedIn
