COACHING RESOURCES FOR PRACTICE OPTIMIZATION AND PHYSICIAN WELLNESS
Partnering with Physicians and Healthcare Organizations.
How does coaching support our best?
Every day physicians feel the intense pressure of being at their best for every patient and the people around us—on top of working long hours, EMR duties, medical education requirements, and online reputations to worry about.
Too often, physicians are left to store their emotions “inside” and keep going. And when confronted with these problems, many are afraid of how they’ll be perceived if they speak up. If they can’t handle it all, why be a physician? This can lead to poor performance, low energy, and questioning career decisions.
IMAGINE IF PHYSICIANS HAD AN EXPERIENCED
- Supporter to listen to professional & personal challenges.
- Sounding board to bounce ideas off of in confidence.
- Ally to discuss administrative burdens.
- Collaborator to strategize career decisions.
- Partner to unlock their best performance.
PHYSICIAN COACHING IS YOUR PERSONALIZED RESOURCE.
Physician Coaching Success Stories
“I valued talking to a trained coach and fellow surgeon and getting advice and input about balancing work and personal life, career development, and other specific issues that come up. What I value the most is I feel it is a ‘safe space’ to talk about these things with an unbiased outside person with similar experiences.”
Confidential Testimonial
General Surgeon
“No one tells you how to run a practice, let alone how to start a program from scratch without any senior guidance. Having a sounding board for how to grow your practice is invaluable. I think that it helped me realize some of the personal goals and personal vision that I’ve had for myself as a surgeon. That work isn’t done, but I truly believe I am further along than if I hadn’t enlisted a coach.”
