Healthcare Strategic Advisor & Executive Mentor

Who this is for

For physicians and healthcare system leaders navigating the strategic and political weight of running healthcare, particularly early- and mid-career physicians weighing whether to step into leadership or add it to the clinical path they are already on. This is direct counsel from someone who has held lead physician, division head, and chief of staff roles, built to help you decide with clarity.

What you receive

One to two months. Two sessions with Dr. Neal, with up to two more available, and optional sessions with a member of the team in between.

  • A written Decision Brief: the decision stated clearly, your own priorities, the options, and the pros and cons, with Dr. Neal's perspective.
  • A role and fit review: the workload against the FTE and stipend, authority and reporting lines, how the role is perceived, and the questions to raise before you say yes.
  • A career positioning note: what the role adds to your experience and how it reads on a CV or resume.
  • A 30-day action plan for what comes after the decision.
  • A short written recap after every session with Dr. Neal.

This is advisory work. It does not include contract, legal, or financial review.
