DocWorking: The Whole Physician Podcast. Doctors devote their lives to caring for others, but the time has come to prioritize the health and wellness of physicians. As physicians, we make decisions every day about how to prioritize our time, energy, focus, attention, and money. Our lives are in our own hands. But are we making these as conscious choices or are we satisfied with speeding through life in default mode? Hosts Jen Barna MD, Coach Gabriella Dennery MD and Master Certified Coach Jill Farmer interview physicians to explore ways to embrace life AND a medical career, some who’ve chosen a path less traveled and others who have optimized their lives on a traditional medical career path. As coaches from the DocWorking team, Gabriella and Jill discuss actionable tips from their experience coaching physicians. We also invite guests on business, leadership, building financial independence, and other pertinent topics to physicians. If you’re a physician, we want to hear your story!

“There’s no real particular formula or fit that you have to fall into to consider a career in medicine.” Par Bolina, M.D.
In this episode, Master Certified Coach Jill Farmer talks with doctor, author and entrepreneur, Dr. Par Bolina about his book Becoming Doctors 25 Years Later, A Follow-Up Visit which is the sequel to 1997’s Becoming Doctors. This is a fascinating look at the life and journey of doctors 25 years after medical school. What do they think now after 25 years of practicing? This book not only gives college students a look at what to expect if they go into the medical field but it also gives patients a glimpse into the lives of doctors. Listen to hear one of Dr. Bolina’s favorite stories from the book.
Par Bolina, M.D., is an internist with a focus on improving physician, patient, and staff experience and safety through innovative clinical workflow design and technology.
Dr. Bolina earned his B.S. from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, medical degree from the University of Illinois at Chicago and completed his internal medicine residency at Baystate Medical Center in Massachusetts. He was a practicing clinician for more than 10 years at Saint Thomas Health, a subsidiary of Ascension in Nashville, Tennessee where he has lived since 2000. As Chief Medical Informatics Officer at Saint Thomas Health, he led the successful integration of electronic medical records for their ambulatory practices before moving to the private sector to serve as the Chief Innovation Officer responsible for designing and scaling virtualized clinical services for health systems and medical groups across the United States.
In 2018, Dr. Bolina founded Bettehr, a management consulting firm focused on improving clinician and patient experience and outcomes.
