Bio Brief:
Barry Bub MD, physician, educator, author, tends to surprise, delight and
attract serious attention with his iconoclastic, experiential, deeply
embodied approach to advancing holistic, relationship-centered health care.
No doctrine is safe around Barry whose novel, probing, strikingly
integrative and effective approaches to mind-body issues are taught in
utterly outside-the-box, experiential methods.
Author of the highly acclaimed new text, Communication Skills that Heal a
practical approach to a new professionalism in medicine Radcliffe Publishing
UK 2006, Barry is a native of South Africa, who, after 26 years of
independent family practice in Pennsylvania USA, walked out on a lucrative
contract and left medicine, disgusted by the corporate mismanagement of
modern medicine. A passionate and dedicated professional, he went out in
search of the next paradigm of practice.
A decade of self directed mind-body studies from certification in Gestalt
psychotherapy, to training in chaplaincy at the Hospital for Special Surgery
in NYC, to studying personality disorders, Focusing, complementary medicine,
spirituality, psychological trauma, communication, bibliodrama, creative
non-fiction writing, narrative medicine even handwriting analysis enabled
Barry to develop innovative practical approaches to complex problems that
interrupt the practitioner-patient relationship. This has led him to become
a counselor for healthcare professionals in distress and a trainer of health
professionals in self care, communication and counseling practices that
promote healing.
Barry has been a vocal leader in the AMA/CMA Physician Health Initiative,
has been asked to assist the University of Pennsylvania Medical School in
the development of their professionalism curriculum and is a lecturer and
leader of workshops for physicians and healthcare professionals. He is
presently working on a second book on patient empowerment.
