Do your patients need more support than you have time to provide?
for DOCTORS AND MEDICAL PRACTITIONERS
Partner with a Health Coach for Enhanced Patient Care!
Are you frustrated by not having enough time to support and educate your patients more closely on healthy habits and behavior change?
Are your patients expressing frustration because they need more guidance and accountability than you can provide?
As a doctor or medical practitioner, your time is precious. In your patient encounters, you may only have time to make recommendations and outline a plan, but some of your patients need close support and assistance in actually implementing that plan.

Why would you want to refer your patients to a health coach?
European sources highlight several key advantages:
Improved Patient Outcomes: Health coaching has been linked to better clinical outcomes, such as improved blood glucose levels (HbA1c), increased patient motivation, adherence to medication, and enhanced self-efficacy. This is particularly beneficial for individuals managing long-term conditions like diabetes or heart disease (BioMed Central) (NHS England).
In fact, the American Medical Association has this to say:
"Health coaching is a team-based approach that helps patients gain the knowledge, skills and confidence to become active participants in their care. The old saying, “Give a man a fish, and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish, and he eats for a lifetime” demonstrates the difference between rescuing a patient and coaching a patient. Patients with chronic conditions need to learn how to fish. Health coaching can be supplemented with health literacy strategies and effective communication techniques, such as ask-tell-ask, teach-back and/or action planning to ensure patient comprehension of their care plans and help them achieve their goals."

Who is a good candidate for referral?
I typically work with women, particularly those aged 30 and above, who are navigating the complexities of hormonal transitions such as perimenopause and dealing with health anxiety. Additionally, I support women on their cancer journey, as well as young women facing eating disorders, unplanned pregnancies, and emotional abuse.
