Empowering Surgeons to Lead, Thrive, and Excel

Why Coaching ?

Surgeons are some of the most dedicated, skilled, and resilient professionals in medicine—but even the best can feel stretched too thin. The constant demands of the operating room, leadership roles, and personal life can lead to burnout, stagnation, or feeling unfulfilled.

Coaching isn’t about telling you what to do—it’s about empowering you to unlock your potential. It’s about helping you:

  • Find balance in a career that often demands everything.

  • Enhance your leadership skills to mentor others and inspire change.

  • Overcome barriers that hold you back from achieving your goals.

  • Rediscover your passion and align it with your purpose.

With a lifetime of experience in academic surgery, leadership, and mentoring, I offer a unique perspective to help you navigate challenges, build confidence, and thrive—not just as a surgeon, but as a person.

Take the first step toward a more balanced, fulfilling future.
Your best self is waiting—let’s find it together.
