Robert Gobbo, MD - Program Director, Hood River Family Medicine Training Program
Our rural residency program has been privileged to learn from Dr Tonya Caylor! For the past three years, she has not only provided faculty development sessions on helping residents struggling with performance challenges in areas such as professionalism, efficiency, and finding meaning in their careers, but she has also provided one-on-one consultations and coaching to faculty and residents. Dr. Caylor is wise, professional, and creative, and her approach is collaborative, thoughtful, and compassionate. We look forward to working together with her for many years!

I use a professional coach regularly, and it improves my leadership and decision-making every month. I grew up as a competitive diver, and every diver has a coach. For that matter, every competitive athlete and team, even the best, have coaches. I could not imagine that my professional work, which is infinitely more complex and consequential, would not benefit from expert, professional scrutiny and feedback. It has. In my opinion, professional coaching is the most effective form of continuing education. A professional coach can help you see your blind spots; can help you clarify your decision making process; can help you build more constructive and therapeutic relationships with patients and colleagues. Engaging a professional coach has been the best professional investment of my career.
