What is a physician (medical professional) loan?

A physician loan helps doctors, dentists, and other medical professionals buy a home with little or no down payment and no PMI — often using a signed employment contract instead of pay stubs. Student loans are counted favorably. Pacific Lending offers medical-professional loans for purchase and refinance.

Frequently asked questions

Can I qualify before I start my job?

Often yes. Many physician loan programs allow you to close up to 60–90 days before your start date using a signed employment contract, so you can move in before day one. Exact timing depends on the program and your file.

How are my student loans counted?

Physician loan programs typically use income-driven repayment (IDR) amounts or favorable calculations for deferred loans rather than a standard percentage of the balance — which can dramatically improve what you qualify for.

Do I really pay no PMI with little down?

Correct — a core benefit of the doctor loan is no private mortgage insurance even with a low or $0 down payment, unlike conventional loans that usually require PMI under 20% down.

Which specialties are eligible?

Programs commonly include MD, DO, DDS/DMD (dentists), and residents/fellows; some include other advanced medical professionals. Tell us your specialty and we’ll confirm your options.

Is this available for refinancing too?

Yes. Whether you’re purchasing your first home or refinancing an existing mortgage, we can review physician-specific options for your situation.
