He is currently the Level II Medical Director at one of the largest Neonatal Intensive Care Units in the world and serves as Chief of Patient Experience for his neonatal practice.

Through his interactive workshops and unique coaching, he has trained thousands of senior physicians, nurses, and practitioners on how to enhance their patient's overall experience and become more fulfilled with their own lives.
