This week on BackTable: Aaron Fritts, MD recently sat down with Elsie Koh MD, MHL, FSIR to learn about physician coaching and personal development, including the difference between mentorship and coaching, how to break through common barriers, and how to empower yourself to realize your potential.
“Elsie is an Interventional Radiologist and founder of LEAD Physician, a physician specific coaching company. Through her own difficult experience, she realized other physicians could benefit from this type of guidance. We discuss some of the most common barriers she sees among physicians that prevent them from seeking out coaching. She believes many hesitate because they don’t believe it will work for them. Many physicians simply don’t know what coaching involves and what their goals should be.
‘If you want to be a valuable aspect of healthcare transformation, make sure you become interested early in your career. Try to use whatever resources are in front of you to learn the non-clinical parts of medicine. You will be so much better off, not only if you own your own private practice or run your own business, but also as a hospital employee. You will be a successful, well-rounded physician who will help healthcare transform the right way. It’s up to us who understand the science of medicine to marry that with the business of medicine.’- Dr. Elsie Koh”
In this episode, host Dr. Aaron Fritts interviews Dr. Elsie Koh about physician coaching and leadership training, including the difference between mentorship and coaching, how to break through common barriers, and how to empower yourself to realize your potential.
