Josh Fleischner is a Disability Insurance Advisor with Tiger Eye Wealth. Raised in a third generation insurance family, Josh was exposed to the disability insurance industry early and developed a sharp understanding of the financial consequences that can arise when substantial earning power is insufficiently protected.

His focus includes individual disability insurance, underwriting strategy, evaluating complex compensation structures and determining forecasting future earning capacity. Josh also works closely with medical residents and fellows in the implementation of Guaranteed Standard Issue (GSI) disability insurance programs, helping young physicians secure coverage early in their careers while access and insurability are at their strongest.
