Nashville, Tennessee

Coaching for Physicians is located between Santa Fe and Albuquerque, NM but you can schedule an appointment by telephone or Zoom from your home, or office, in Nashville.

Many physicians find they save time and money with intensive coaching by Zoom or at Dr. Hudson's farm outside Santa Fe. If you prefer the convenience of staying at home, Dr. Hudson can come to you for one-on-one, confidential coaching intensives in your office or home. Just ask for a proposal.

Intensive marathon coaching is an immersive experience lasting one day, in which individuals meet one-on-one with Dr. Hudson for 5 hours and stay overnight at a nearby hotel or bed and breakfast. Each individual hasa unique schedule that is worked out in advance. These programs are one-on-one and exclusively for doctors. Intensive marathon coaching and soft skills training is especially useful for physicians who cannot attend weekly coaching sessions and need to travel from distant locations. It provides a brief, intensive and focused approach to your coaching issues and is designed to help you learn new skills in less time.

Follow up sessions are provided at the regular rates for personal coaching. This immersive experience is the quickest way to make changes and get up to speed on important soft skills concepts. We can tailor any marathon intensive to your needs. Our services include coaching for anger management and disruptive physician coaching, burnout and stress reduction, marital & relationship coaching, malpractice support,time management, conflict resolution, career & retirement coaching, executive coaching, emotional intelligence, communication and interpersonal skills coaching for doctors like you.

"I highly recommend Coaching for Physicians to any physician that has (these) experiences: For those in transitions of location or job…For those feeling abused by their experiences in training, their employer, their patients…For those working in healthcare organizations where team building is particularly important.. For those experiencing or at risk for burn‐out…For those feeling the stress of a professional career that forces individuals to the edge of work‐ life balance…For those feeling under scrutiny from authorities (third party payers, state organizations, employers) or from patients… For those experiencing heavy workloads… For those managing time constraints… For those who are feeling that medicine is not fulfilling…For those striving to improve professional and personal relationships…In short, I recommend coaching for all physicians.” Telemedicine Physician/Tennessee
