Brian Wong, MD

Brian is a board certified, family physician with a 27 year career in the healthcare industry, which includes experiences as: a practicing physician, a hospice medical director, a medical group administrator, a managed care executive, a health system board member, a consultant in healthcare strategy/operations, an experienced facilitator in conflict resolution/consensus building and an expert in leadership development and executive coaching. He specializes in the area of physician engagement and physician leadership development. Brian is, first and foremost, a physician, with a unique ability to be fluent in four different languages: medicine, healthcare, business and leadership. He takes advantage of this capability to facilitate group conversations and in the process, identify common ground, resolve conflicts, and promote a durable, working consensus among diverse healthcare leadership constituents to transform the cultures of organizations and the health status of communities. Along the way, physicians become more engaged and aligned in the strategic direction of healthcare organizations and willingly choose to participate and assume leadership roles in shaping the culture and behavioral expectations of their respective medical communities.

Ten years of clinical practice experience in family medicine
Medical Director of a group of 8 family physicians
