All hands on deck to encourage physician peer support and to promote physician led efforts.

The Physician Project connects physicians seeking change with physicians creating alternatives. Thank you for paving the way.

If you’re coaching physicians, hosting a podcast, writing a blog, or creating courses for our colleagues, thank you. You’re doing the work that makes this profession less isolating and more sustainable.


You get it. You understand the unique pressures we physicians face, the impossible schedules, the constant second-guessing about whether clinical medicine is our only option. Who else is better positioned to support physicians than someone who’s lived it?


Here’s what I’ve learned after collecting physician career resources since 2011: we’ve got allies. We have scores of physician coaches, podcasters, bloggers, and course creators committed to serving our colleagues. These physicians have paved new paths and are creating alternatives for themselves and others.


The problem? Physicians are scattered across specialties, generations, and social media platforms. The doctors who need your resources often can’t find them, and even when they’re searching, they don’t always know what they’re looking for. Meanwhile, you’re competing with expensive SEO tactics and unpredictable algorithms just to stay visible.


The solution? A free, physician-focused directory that helps physicians seeking change discover what’s out there while giving physicians creating alternatives, high-quality backlinks, and better discoverability, without the algorithm games.

I’ve been collecting career resources for physicians since 2011. What started as a personal project became something bigger when I realized: we physicians are uniquely equipped to help each other, but we lack the means to connect.

For over a decade, I watched incredible physician coaches, podcasters, and bloggers create life-changing content—only to see it buried by algorithms or lost in the noise of social media. Meanwhile, physicians desperately seeking these resources had no idea they existed.

In March 2020, I launched The Physician Project to solve both problems: help physicians discover the abundance of peer-created resources while giving those offering resources the visibility they deserve. The Physician Project is FREE for physicians seeking change and physicians creating alternatives alike, because physician peer support shouldn’t have a paywall.

The early response has been encouraging. Physicians creating alternatives get it—they’re excited about free backlinks and resonate with the mission because they know how independent and isolated our colleagues are.

I’m a physician who built this platform because I believe we’re stronger when we can find each other.

You’ve created valuable content for physicians. The problem? Getting it in front of the colleagues who need it most.

Social media is unpredictable. Algorithms change, accounts can be unstable, and your content competes with everything else in someone’s feed. Physicians might need help finding you.

Search engines require resources. Ranking on the first page of Google takes significant time, money, and SEO expertise. Even then, physicians often don’t know what to search for when they’re drowning in clinical and family responsibilities. Their imagination is limited by what they can think to ask.

The Physician Project offers a different path. Physicians browse by category and topic to discover resources they didn’t know they needed. Your content sits alongside other physician-created resources, organized by kind:

  • Services by/for physicians
  • Courses by/for physicians
  • Blogs by/for physicians
  • Podcasts by or featuring physicians
  • Physician networks
  • Books & literature for physicians
  • Physician-created products for the public
  • Clinical practices for the public

Instead of competing with algorithms or SEO budgets, your listings appear where curious physicians are actively exploring what their peers have created. As technology evolves, The Physician Project is committed to staying relevant and helping physicians connect with quality, peer-created content.

It’s completely free. No fees to add your listings, no fees to update them, no subscription required. Ever.

You get multiple listings. Each of your offerings, your podcast, coaching practice, course, and blog, gets its own dedicated page. As your work expands over the years (and I’ve watched many of you grow!), you can showcase the variety and depth of what you offer. Each listing is discoverable through different categories and topics, and they all point back to you.

Content rules, not marketing budgets. New and established physicians appear side by side. Physicians browse by what they’re interested in, not by who paid for visibility or gamed an algorithm.

You control your presence. You decide what information to share, which social platforms to link to, and how to describe your work.

Bonus: free backlinks. Every listing provides high-quality backlinks that help both humans and search engines find you. This improves your SEO without the usual time and cost investment.

It’s simple. You fill out a form for each item you want to add to The Physician Project.

Let’s say you have a coaching practice, a podcast, and an online course. That’s three separate forms—one for each offering. Each gets its own dedicated page on the site, which means three different ways for physicians to discover you and your work.

The form takes just a few minutes to complete. You’ll provide basic information (name, URL, category, topics) and we’ll handle the rest. Once you submit, we’ll review your entry and get back to you within a week.

Ready to add your first listing? The next section walks you through exactly what information you’ll need.

What's a listing?

First, you’ll choose what type of listing you’re adding. Don’t worry if you have multiple types, you’ll just fill out a separate form for each one. Here’s what we mean by each category:

SERVICES: One-on-one coaching, group coaching programs, consulting services, or mentorship programs designed specifically for physicians. If you’re helping doctors navigate their careers through direct interaction, this is you.

COURSES: Educational offerings such as online courses, in-person retreats, workshops, conferences, or certification programs created for physicians. Think structured learning experiences.

BLOGS & PODCASTS: Written or audio content that you create. This includes blogs you write, podcasts you host, or shows that regularly feature physician voices and perspectives.

NETWORKS: Communities you’ve built for physicians to connect. This could be mentorship programs, peer support groups, mastermind groups, or professional networks.

BOOKS/LITERATURE: Published works written for a physician audience. This includes books, journal articles, white papers, or other long-form publications.

PRODUCTS: Things you’ve created for the general public (not just physicians). This could be books for patients, wellness products, apps, or other goods and services that showcase your expertise to a broader audience.

PRACTICES: Clinical practices or consulting services you offer directly to patients or the public. (This type of listing is still in beta as we decide if we want to showcase these offerings.)

Next, you’ll choose one category and two topics for each listing. This is where strategy matters.

Think about how physicians might search for your work. The more thoughtfully you choose, the more ways physicians can discover you. And don’t worry if you want to adjust later, you can always update your category and topics as your content evolves.

Browse the options below:

Here’s what the form will ask for:

  • Listing name — what you call this specific offering
  • Influencer name — who created it (you or your organization)
  • URL — where it lives online
  • Email — for verification only (stays private)
  • Kind, category, & topics — your selections from above

 

Note: The listing name and influencer name are usually different. For example, your coaching program might be called “Physician Fun Group” (listing name) while you’re “Dr. Awesome Internist” (influencer name).

Sometimes they’re the same, such as “Fun Doctors Network” (listing name) created by Fun Doctors Network (influencer name).
