My 30 years as a practicing family physician and as a physician executive in both small and large health care systems led me to my passion for returning joy to patient care using a Lean approach. I’ve personally felt the pain of frustrated patients, overworked providers, and stressed leaders, as well as the joy of resolving those pains.

I’m an experienced physician executive, C-suite coach, and subject matter expert on physician burnout with a proven approach to identify, treat, and prevent burnout in individuals and organizations. I work to help organizations reduce the risk of physician burnout using a five-step approach that addresses burnout’s root causes at organizational, clinical, and individual levels. I also coach health care leaders on medical group leadership, medical group mergers and acquisitions, physician engagement, EHR optimization, and physician compensation plans.
