The Coaching Cure: Rob Orman on Recalibrating Careers and Confronting Incivility in Healthcare
In this insightful conversation, I speak with Dr. Rob Orman, emergency physician turned physician coach, about the urgent challenges many clinicians face—including burnout, incivility, and a lack of sustainability in traditional healthcare roles.
Rob is the creator and host of The Stimulus Podcast and leads Orman Physician Coaching. He holds extensive expertise as a medical educator, is a multiple award-winning speaker with a deep background in communication. He served as chief editor of EM:RAP, created the Stimulus and ERcast podcasts, and for nearly a decade hosted Essentials of Emergency Medicine, the largest single-track emergency medicine conference in the world.
The discussion touches on the structure of physician jobs, how coaching can shift individual mindsets and institutional culture, and how moving from rumination to action can be transformative. Recommended readings and tangible strategies round out this thoughtful episode for anyone rethinking their path in medicine.
Key takeaways:
—Recalibration is essential for physicians confronting burnout and stress.
—Incivility in healthcare environments undermines physician well-being.
—Coaching offers sustainable solutions for personal and professional growth.
—Coaching can improve not just individual outcomes but also hospital culture.
—The traditional structure of medical roles often overlooks clinician health.
