Our Mission

Ending Clinician Burnout (ECB) Community is a global movement dedicated to creating healthcare systems where clinicians can heal, lead, and thrive. Founded in 2020, ECB convenes clinicians, leaders, researchers, and innovators to translate evidence into action—moving beyond awareness to scalable solutions that restore well-being and elevate patient care.

Each year we host the ECB Global Summit—a two-day, virtual gathering featuring 30+ speakers across disciplines. Past events have brought together over a thousand participants from 43 countries, reflecting a shared commitment to reshape culture, redesign workflows, and invest in human sustainability.

What we do

  • Convene: Summits, partner events, and dialogues that spotlight proven practices.

  • Curate: Practical resources and playbooks organizations can implement now.

  • Catalyze: Partnerships that accelerate change across health systems and regions.

Our north star: a future where clinician well-being is measured, funded, and integrated as a core quality metric—because caring for the caregivers is essential to caring for everyone.

Join us. Explore resources, connect with partners, and be part of the change.

I am a Harvard and Mount Sinai-trained physician, practicing clinical cardiologist, certified mindfulness and compassion meditation teacher, and a healthcare organizational resilience and well-being leader for a team of 38,000.

I survived my hidden struggles with anxiety, depression, and burnout and rediscovered joy and meaning at work the hard way.

This is the summit I wish was around a decade ago when I hit rock bottom; it would have made all the difference.

I am committed to ending the burnout crisis in healthcare and optimizing the well-being and peak performance of colleagues, team members, and healthcare organizations.

I am a regular invited speaker at medical schools, healthcare organizations, and professional societies on the subject of physician burnout and well-being,

We must heal the heart of healthcare. And together, we can.

I love sharing evidence-based, high-yield, easy-to-implement skills and techniques in highly interactive keynotes, workshops, and retreats.

My first book, “Just One Heart: A Cardiologist’s Guide to Healing, Health, and Happiness” is about the science and art of harnessing the power of the mind-heart connection.

 

My focus: Prioritizing workforce health, safety and well-being.
