Sound familiar?
If this is you, a coach can help
- Your RVU targets keep rising, the in-basket follows you home, and you can't tell whether a new setting would fix it or whether you need a different role.
- Your group was bought by private equity or folded into a health system, and the schedule, the targets, and your say in how you practice have all changed.
- You've chaired committees and led quality projects, and now you want a medical director, CMO, or VPMA role. Your CV doesn't show the operational results those searches screen for.
- Medical affairs, utilization review, health tech, or consulting keeps coming up, and you want to know what those jobs involve before you give up any clinical time.

Questions
Physician career coaching FAQ
Will my coach understand how medicine works?
We match you on specialty, level, and goal with a coach who knows how medicine hires and promotes. Our bench includes former recruiters and talent acquisition leaders who have hired and recruited across healthcare, finance, and technology. You bring the clinical judgment, and your coach brings the view from the hiring side.
Do I have to leave clinical medicine to make a change?
No. Plenty of physicians stay in practice and change the setting, the schedule, or the employer. Others add an administrative role or part-time nonclinical work alongside patient care. Your coach helps you work out which change addresses the problem you have.
How do physicians move into a medical director or CMO role?
The usual route runs through committee leadership, quality and safety work, and a part-time medical director role before a full-time one. Your coach helps you choose the next step, describe your results in operational terms, and get in front of the people and search firms who fill those seats.
What if my coach isn't the right fit?
Tell us within 48 hours of your first session and we'll re-match you or refund you. That's our 100% satisfaction guarantee.
