During medical school at the University of Colorado, he frequently performed standup comedy throughout Denver for both live audiences ... and cadavers.

Yesssss! You’ve done it! You’ve found the funny motivational keynote speaker you’ve been looking for! And he’s a physician, too, so he can diagnose and treat what ails you! Is burnout a problem? Are you struggling with employee engagement, morale and performance? Want to improve workforce wellness and resilience?

Brad Nieder, MD, CSP*, knows it, too! And he can help by making a house call to your conference, convention, meeting or employee event!
Not the stereotypical motivational speaker, this funny doctor does NOT deliver rah-rah-you-can-do-it-cheerleading and hackneyed acronyms of gobbledygook. That’s just not his style. Rather, this conference keynote speaker uses his medical background and sense of humor to engage and uplift. Your audience will be motivated to change their perspective, lighten up and laugh more. They’ll be inspired to choose optimism and increase their level of joy at work and in life … in short, to be happier!
This funny motivational speaker won’t stop there, though. He wants to educate, too, so he always dispenses valuable information in his keynote speech. Your participants will learn why laughter is the best medicine (unless they have giggle bladder incontinence) … for combating stress, feeling better and living longer. They’ll get the latest wellness advice, too, learning new healthy habits to improve health and well-being. And it all will be delivered in a memorable manner unlike that of any other physician they’ve encountered!

A Physician Burnout Speaker Who Can Get Doctors to Laugh!
Call it what you will: burnout, compassion fatigue, abuse, moral injury … No matter how you label it, it has become all too common among healthcare professionals.
And it’s an epidemic among physicians. They’ve always been used to the “normal” stress of caring for others. But they have so many more stressors in this current era of healthcare. Most have lost their autonomy, with administrators of big healthcare bureaucracies determining policies, cutting costs and forcing everyone to do more with less. Docs are dealing with insurance company policy makers, too, dictating what tests can be ordered and what therapies can be prescribed. Let’s not forget the threat of malpractice lawsuits in today’s hostile, litigious legal environment.
And, of course, the government is involved, too, with regulations, mandates and a veritable alphabet soup from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Service (CMS) Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) and Recovery Audit Contractor (RAC) program. And those acronyms bring to mind some others related to all the stressful tests doctors have to take throughout their lives: MCAT, USMLE, CME, ABMS MOC … And those are on top of the IV, EKG, MRI, CBC, KY and of course everyone’s favorite stress-inducing $%&#ing acronym: EMR!
OMG!
No wonder doctors are not just stressed; they’re overstressed! They’re not just tired; they’re exhausted! They’re cynical, disengaged, negative. They’re complaining and misbehaving. They’ve lost the joy of practicing medicine. There’s no LOL.
You want to help them. First, it’s the morally responsible thing to do when so many are turning to drugs, alcohol and even suicide. Second, it’s also a money-saving smart business decision, as continued burnout among providers means more staff turnover, more medical errors and malpractice suits, lower quality of care, lower patient experience scores, an impaired institutional reputation and ultimately lower profits.
Yes, a return on your investment in your physicians’ wellness can result in better morale, higher physician retention rates, improved recruitment of doctors, better quality and safety scores, improved patient satisfaction and an improved bottom line! That’s quite an ROI!
It’s time to care for the caregivers, to heal the healers!- Nurses Need Some Love!
Nurses need some love! The true heroes of healthcare, they’re the ones who bear the brunt of the healthcare system’s problems. They’re understaffed, overworked and stressed! They’re suffering from low morale, compassion fatigue and burnout. And they have to work with doctors! Many report feeling disengaged, undervalued and unrecognized for the amazing work they do every single day!
Dr. Brad can’t cure all nurses’ ailments by himself, but he can get treatment started with just one house call as a nursing conference speaker. With his humor and insights, the comedian doctor can help nurses rediscover happiness at work, even among the myriad frustrations. And a little more satisfaction at work goes a long way toward …
• reducing costs through greater nurse retention, less nurse turnover and less absenteeism
• improving nurses’ productivity and performance
• improving quality of care and patient satisfaction
• increasing the bottom line! A Healthcare Keynote Speaker … Who’s A Doctor?! And Funny?! Come On!
The healthcare system is ill, folks! The Quadruple Aim of healthcare—enhancing the patient experience, improving population health, reducing costs and increasing joy at work for those in the system—remains elusive. Healthcare professionals are dealing with monumental changes and incredible stress.
Doctors are overburdened; physician burnout is an epidemic. Administrators are dealing with increased regulations and shrinking budgets. Nurses are understaffed and overworked; compassion fatigue is rampant. Everyone is so busy trying to do more with less that staff members feel disengaged and dissatisfied rather than valued and appreciated.
Quality and safety measures are paramount, with Joint Commission surprise surveys and patient satisfaction scores—whether through Press Ganey, HCAHPS or even Yelp!—determining accreditation, policy and reimbursement. Everyone’s worried about HIPAA and CMS and ROI and EMR and … OMG! Nobody is LOLing anymore!
Dr. Brad can’t cure the dysfunctional healthcare system all by himself, but he can get treatment started with just one house call as a healthcare keynote speaker. With his humor and insight, the comedian doctor can help healthcare professionals rediscover happiness at work, even among the myriad frustrations. And a little more satisfaction at work goes a long way toward:
• reducing costs through reduced staff turnover, greater staff retention and less absenteeism
• improving workforce productivity and performance
• improving quality of care and patient satisfaction
• increasing the bottom line!
