About

We’re building a culture of coaching

The Physician Coaching Institute developed the first of its kind specialized coach training program for professionals who want to develop their expertise in working with physicians, clinicians and the healthcare team. Dr. Francine Gaillour founded the Physician Coaching Institute in 2008 after having been a coach trailblazer for physicians since 2002.

A physician leader and coaching visionary, Dr. Gaillour witnessed the power of coaching in supporting physicians through all aspects of their professional journey. Her mission has been to make professional coaching an essential part of physician development. Moreover, she envisions a healthcare culture of coaching, where every healthcare team member understands the “coaching approach”— from CEO, to CMO, to the front line clinician. We hope you will join our community!

The Physician Coaching Institute is Accredited by the International Coach Federation
