Financial Literacy and Wellbeing among Medical Students, Residents, and Attending Physicians in Lebanon: Results from A Nationwide Multi-Centered Survey

Thank you all for joining me today. My name is Dr. Mohammed Ali Jardaly, a family medicine physician and population health manager in Saudi Arabia. This presentation is special to me as it originated from a passion project I started during my residency. I aim to inspire you to focus on financial wellbeing, encourage you to be proactive in managing your finances, and promote organization in your financial planning.

The title of our paper is "Financial Literacy and Wellbeing among Medical Students, Residents, and Attending Physicians in Lebanon." I will be presenting the results of this nationwide, multi-centered study. I would like to thank my collaborators, Dr. Juman Antoun, Dr. Anna Saad, Dr. Hassan Doumiati, and my mentor, Dr. Isam Sharani, for their contributions to this project. It took over two years to conceptualize and conduct the research, and I am pleased that it is now published for others to learn from.

You can find me online on X (formerly Twitter) at MAJ AAP and I also host a podcast called the Lebanese Physicians Podcast. Please feel free to reach out to me. So why is a family doctor discussing finance with you today? This research is influenced by the current events in my home country of Lebanon.
