Trusted Healthcare Financing Experts

I'm a specialist commercial finance broker with 16 years of experience helping Australian business owners access commercial property finance. As founder of Smart Business Plans, I've overseen $550 million in commercial finance across more than 3,300 clients, with a 92% approval rate working across a panel of 60+ specialist lenders. My expertise sits at the intersection of commercial property, business finance, and wealth strategy — particularly for small to medium business owners looking to buy their own premises, invest through their SMSF, or fund development projects. I work exclusively in the commercial space, which means I specialise where the major banks often can't or won't go. I'm also the author of The Premise Effect (2026), which makes the case for why Australian business owners are leaving millions on the table by renting rather than owning their business premises. I'm available to comment on: commercial property finance, SMSF borrowing, business lending, commercial mortgage rates, Australian property market trends, and small business wealth building.

I founded Commercial Funding Partners in 2012 with a clear mission: build a performing portfolio of customers who return because we treat them right and help them grow responsibly. After six years at a competitor and seeing how customers were often handled at deal end, I knew there was a better way to do business in commercial equipment finance. We’re a national direct lender with capacity from $250,000 to over $100 million per project, serving manufacturers, contractors, healthcare providers, transportation companies, and others across the U.S. What sets us apart is speed paired with judgment. Our small, senior-level finance committee allows us to make decisions quickly—often the same day—and months faster than SBA processes, where time value often outweighs minor rate differences. We listen to the story behind the balance sheet and underwrite context, not just numbers. We structure real-world solutions through progress funding, 100% project financing, sale-leasebacks, and tax-aware terms that banks often can’t provide. We don’t do deals we wouldn’t sign ourselves. Over 40% of our business comes from repeat clients, many with long-standing relationships that improve with each transaction. I’m active in industry leadership with ELFA, NEFA, and AACFB, where I chaired the Education Committee for four years and received the President’s Award. Before CFP, I worked at IBM and helped manage and grow Plumbers Supply Company through its acquisition by Wolseley. I hold a BS from the University of Utah and an MBA from Westminster College. Our goal is simple: be the first call for our customers and help great businesses grow smarter and faster.

I'm a mathematics education professor at UNC Pembroke and the founder of Debt Clarity Tools (debtclaritytools.com) — a platform I built to help everyday people understand and eliminate debt using real math, not motivation. My background is in STEM-Mathematics Education. I earned my PhD from NC State University, where my research focused on how people learn complex quantitative reasoning. I've spent years teaching math at the university level, and I became increasingly frustrated that the personal finance world was filled with hype, vague advice, and emotional appeals — but almost no actual mathematical clarity. So I built something different. Debt Clarity Tools offers free, math-powered calculators that help users see exactly what their debt costs them, when they'll be debt-free, and which payoff strategy saves them the most money. The site also offers digital guides and a comprehensive Debt Freedom Blueprint for people ready to create a real plan. My work sits at the intersection of mathematics education and personal finance literacy. I believe most people aren't bad with money — they just haven't seen the numbers clearly. When they do, behavior changes. Topics I speak and write about: Debt payoff strategies (snowball vs. avalanche — and when each works) The hidden math behind minimum payments Why financial literacy needs to go beyond budgeting How educators and academics can create accessible consumer tools The gap between personal finance content and actual financial math I'm available for expert quotes and media features related to personal finance, financial literacy, mathematics education, and content entrepreneurship.

Joshua Mirrer, MD is a Board-Certified Reconstructive Plastic and Hand Surgeon practicing in the American Southwest, where he treats high-volume trauma, complex hand injuries, chronic wounds, and reconstructive conditions across multiple hospital systems. He serves as Hand and Microsurgery Fellowship Program Director, where he trains surgeons at the intersection of technical excellence, clinical judgment, and real-world healthcare constraints. Dr. Mirrer’s clinical work places him on the front lines of the U.S. healthcare system—caring for patients affected by delayed access, insurance denials, chronic disease, environmental exposure, and socioeconomic instability. This experience has shaped his broader focus on healthcare as a system, not just a series of medical encounters. He frequently examines how policy decisions, reimbursement structures, regulatory lag, and financial incentives influence patient outcomes, costs, and physician practice. In addition to his surgical practice, Dr. Mirrer writes and speaks on healthcare reform, prevention versus disease management, medical training, insurance inefficiencies, and the downstream health effects of environmental and economic policy. His work integrates clinical medicine with public health, behavioral economics, and systems thinking, aiming to translate complex issues into practical insights for clinicians, policymakers, and the public. He is not affiliated with industry or political organizations and approaches these topics as a practicing physician and educator offering firsthand perspective from within one of the most stressed segments of the healthcare system. This includes but is not limited to shortfalls of The Affordable Care Act, limitations of the current administration’s actions on healthcare, lack of preventive medicine, costs of care, and the intersection of environment, finance, morality, freedom, and healthcare.
