About Us
Giving You Peace of Mind
Blue Sclera Disability Insurance offers healthcare providers the best possible protection for all of their Disability and Life Insurance needs. What sets us apart from others is "real-life experience". Our experience and expertise cannot be conveyed through a brochure. Our primary focus is for physicians to understand WHY they need insurance coverage.
This approach has served us well over the years. We are fortunate to know that every person that we have met have become clients and have referred us to their respective colleagues.

Brian Travers, MD
Founder
Dr. Travers, is a Brain Injury Survivor and Disability Insurance Advocate who works with other physicians assisting them with their insurance needs. He became inspired by his own real-life experiences that led him into medicine and financial services. Being born with Osteogenesis Imperfecta required many visits to his orthopedic surgeons office which led him on his chosen career of becoming a doctor. Shortly after graduating from medical school his career path came to and end when he lost his hearing, a consequence of his bone disease. It was a this time he realized the financial consequences of not being prepared for the unexpected. Rather than be held back by his unexpected disabling events, Dr. Travers chose to enter into financial services to share his experiences in an effort to educate others as to the need for proper financial planning. His mission is simple: to make sure no other physician would ever have to go through the emotional and financial hardships he has endured.
While living in Rhode Island, Dr. Travers has lectured to over 50 residency training programs around New England and the neighboring Tri State areas. He has spent an equal amount of time lecturing at insurance agencies and has been a keynote speaker at insurance events around the country.
