Gail Gazelle

Several years ago, prior to becoming a physician coach, and at a critically stressful time in my career, I struggled with self-doubt, constant rumination, and over-tiredness. Learn more about my journey through burnout and why I chose to become a physician coach to contribute to bringing an end to the epidemic of physician burnout.

Dr. Smita Halder

I am a physician with over 25 years of clinical and research experience. I know the demands we all face, and how difficult it can be navigating a road to personal advancement. I also know that people have the ability to become empowered to truly make an impact on themselves, on others, and their future. Coaching was a foreign concept to me until a few years ago.

It was offered as part of a leadership course, but I had no idea how it could be of benefit to me or my career. Within the first session, I had gained clarity on a key goal and experienced one of the most powerful conversations in my career.

Michael Hersh

I am a practicing gastroenterologist and a coach for physicians. When I became an attending in 2009, I hit the ground running. I was excited to build my practice and engage with patients. I joined a small multispecialty group and took on as many leadership opportunities as I could find. If you had a committee that needed a young, eager physician, I was your guy.

My position in the group blossomed and I became a well-respected physician in my community.

Adrienne Mann

I found coaching when I was in my 2nd or 3rd year out of training. I had a young family and was advancing through the ranks in my clinical practice and taking on leadership roles in my institution. It wasn’t long before I the wheels started to wobble. I was suffering with post-partum depression and barely keeping my head above water at work or at home.

I was eating and drinking more than I wanted or needed to so I could feel better about myself. On a friend’s recommendation, I hired a coach to help me get my mind and body back on track and it CHANGED MY LIFE.
