From Military Surgery training to Private Practice Owner and Author, my guest today has lived many facets of medicine.

My guest is Dr Amy Vertrees, who is a General Surgeon and Coach for Physicians, and today she shares her amazing journey. Dr Vertrees is on a mission to help us all see what we didn't learn in residency, and encourages us to build skills and practices that help us develop into more of who we want to be, both in medicine and beyond.

Join us as she drops gem tips, including how to "stop the treadmill," and what "CEO Time" can do for you.

Amy Vertrees, MD is a board-certified general surgeon, Army veteran, certified coach,
author and founder of the BOSS Business of Surgery Series. She served 17 years in
the Army, reaching the rank of lieutenant colonel, and deploying 3 times to Afghanistan
and Iraq as a general surgeon. After leaving the military, she was an employed surgeon
then created Columbia Surgical Partners, a private practice general surgery group. She
discovered there were lessons that she was never taught in residency that were
necessary for a successful surgical career. She created the BOSS Business of Surgery
Series to fill in that gap and has used everything that she has learned to become a
successful private practice general surgeon. The BOSS series includes a highly rated
podcast, group coaching and 1:1 coaching and the book “Become the BOSS MD:
Success Beyond Residency.”
