In the first month of my new job at Johns Hopkins, I used material from my strategy class to lead a discussion about our organization’s strategy. Accounting allowed me to understand financial statements and ask key questions to guide my first few projects. These are skills that I was never taught in medical school and now set me apart from most physicians. Furthermore, I see problems and solutions differently. With a business education, I am focused on the customer’s experience, maximizing impact with available resources, using data to drive better conversations, and aligning our people and activities so that they are complementary.
I was a Neuroradiologist at Duke Medicine engaged in direct patient care and research. I also had a few clinical and education-based leadership roles in the Department of Radiology. I saw getting an MBA as an opportunity to grow personally and to prepare for future leadership roles.
I am now in a new job at Johns Hopkins. As Vice-Chair of Integration, I will be building a system that aims to maintain high quality in patient care and improve physician efficiency as Hopkins Radiology grows and integrates other radiology practices. As Medical Director, I will be applying accounting, marketing, and operations skills to my organization’s business decisions and improving our financial performance.
