Data · The Physician Debt Index

What physician student loans actually look like.

Typical debt, PSLF eligibility, and the strategy that wins — by specialty and training stage. Built from anonymized AttendingFi results, and it gets sharper every time a physician runs their numbers.

Who's planning their loans — by stage.

How this is built & our privacy promise. The Index aggregates anonymized results from physicians who run AttendingFi — never names, emails, or anything identifying, and we never sell data. Until the live sample is large enough, figures are a transparent modeled baseline from federal data and published medians (the badge above tells you which). Educational estimates, not advice.
