Accelerating Physician Leader Impact: Joan Zoltanski, M.D.

Clinically trained in pediatrics, Joan Zoltanski, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of UCSF Benioff Children's Hospitals, finds it easy to stay fully engaged in her work – with physicians and caregivers as well as patients, their families, and the broader community. Being fully engaged, for pediatricians, is "the norm," she says. "It's our sweet spot." In the world of "adult" care at UCSF, Dr. Zoltanski has turned this penchant for engagement into success as a leader.

In this Impactful Leaders episode, part of our Accelerating Physician Leader Impact series, Dr. Zoltanski speaks with WittKieffer Principal and fellow pediatrician Mike Anderson, M.D. about how to support the well-being of clinicians, and to best support those physicians who wish to pursue leadership.
