Physician Coaching
“Inspiring physicians to improve healthcare by nurturing professional relationships, advocating for social justice, and reconnecting with the great reasons we went into Medicine in the first place.”
"I want to be a more effective & efficient physician."
Dr. Greatheart provides you with one-to-one coaching, from physician to physician. He works with physicians from around the world in English only. He bring to this work a shared understanding of the challenges of an active medical practice, as well as 25 years' experience as a community educator and social worker. He holds a Master of Social Work from the University of British Columbia, as well as post-graduate training in individual and couples counselling praxis, and Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy. His approach to coaching is strengths-based and explores our personal experiences as physicians, and how our work impacts self, family and community.

The last time you received feedback was probably as a resident.
It really isn't fair that we are pushed out into a world as staff—a world with higher expectations, more complexity, and great responsibility—and expected to have all the skills we need. Our perspectives change over the course of our career as a clinician. What we may need or want from a coach will be different at different stages. Most of us providing care take great pride in it, and it hurts us in many ways when our patients don't know how much we care. As a coach, I can help bridge the gap.
