Today is the first episode where I interview two guests in the same episode! Welcome to the Co-Head Team Physicians for the USA Gymnastics Women’s National Team: Ellen Casey, MD and Marcia “Marcy” Faustin, MD.
Dr. Casey is an associate attending physiatrist at the Hospital for Special Surgery as well as associate professor of clinical rehabilitation medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College. She did her Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation residency and Sports Medicine Fellowship at Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago (now the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab).
Dr. Faustin is an assistant clinical professor, family and sports medicine physician, working on the opposite coast at UC Davis Health. She completed her Family Medicine residency and Sports Medicine Fellowship at UC San Diego Medical Center.
Both Ellen and Marcy bring their backgrounds as NCAA DI athletes. Ellen was a gymnast at Penn State and Marcy competed in Track and Field at Loyola. Bringing their personal experience and love of sports has helped them in their work with the athletes of USA Gymnastics.
This episode has double the challenges, triumphs, and advice packed into the same space.
We talk about:
- The communication skills that make this bicoastal partnership work
- Using their individual strengths to optimize how they share work responsibilities
- Effectively using goals and calendars to organize the chaos
