Biography
Naim El-Aswad, MD, FACP, ACC, is a fellow of the American College of Physicians and a healthcare professional coach. He has been an internist and emergency room physician for over 20 years. He is the founder and Chief Medical Officer of Vital Signs Vital Skills, a coaching and consulting company that specializes in executive, life, and wellness coaching.
"Once the unnecessary stressors of medical practice are minimized or removed, the essential ones will still be there. A disciplined approach to coaching, as outlined in this book, can help physicians understand the traumas they face and successfully balance their work and personal lives."
Stefanie Simmons, MD. Chief Medical Officer of the Dr. Lorna Breen Heroes’ Foundation
"Physicians face intense challenges every day and these challenges leave scars. Coaching is one of the most effective ways to overcome challenges and for the first time, Dr. El-Aswad reveals the power of coaching for those in clinical practice. With burnout and quits at an all-time high, this book is an essential reading for those helping to fix the healthcare crisis."
Paul J. Zak, PhD, author of Immersion: The Science of the Extraordinary and the Source of Happiness
"Coaching in the healthcare workforce has had an undeniable explosion of interest in the past five years yet is still new enough to be a daunting topic for those interested in understanding its scope, uses, and potential impact. Coaching for Physicians provides needed structure, clarity, and exploration around the concept of coaching for the healthcare workforce, written in an entertaining and educational style. A must read for those interested in staying on the cutting edge of well-being interventions and understanding how coaches think, process, and support the healthcare workforce."
Gregory Guldner, MD, MS, FACEP (Stanford Chief Wellness Officer Course Alumni; Clinical Professor of Emergency Medicine, University of California Riverside School of Medicine)
