Surgeons Need Special Care As Coaching Clients

Anderson & Anderson, APC is the major provider of Emotional Intelligence skill enhancement coaching for physicians. Most physicians who access our coaching program are surgeons. There are few professions that can be compared to medicine and even fewer whose responsibilities are as overwhelming as surgeons.

In order to accommodate the busy schedules of surgeons, we have found it necessary to offer our services seven days a week at our Los Angeles, Palm Springs or Fairbanks, Alaska offices or on-site at a location determined by the surgeon.

One Indiana based surgeon requested meeting at Disney World Theme Park in Orlando, Florida while on vacation with his family. Most health care organizations are willing to pay extra to have the services provided on-site at the surgeon’s office.

It is costly for a surgeon to take time from his or her busy practice to travel out of state to San Diego or Nashville for a service that he or she is mandated to attend. The financial loss to the surgeon, the hospital and to the community can be devastating.

Finally, surgeons are hypersensitive to any intervention that is provided in a group setting. Confidentiality simply cannot be protected in continuing medical education courses (CME) or group counseling. Therefore, it is incumbent on the service provider to reach out to the surgeon in every way possible to make the intervention offered easy to access.
