The Hat Rack Podcast: New Episode

Beyond the White Coat: Leadership, Failure, and Finding Your Path in Medicine
Online | Anytime | Free
In this episode of The Hat Rack, host Dr. Bill McCauley speaks with Dr. Andrew Park, emergency physician, healthcare executive, and former President of the Ontario Medical Association. This conversation marks the first in a new series exploring physicians who have built careers that extend beyond traditional clinical practice.

Dr. Park shares his unconventional path from high-acuity emergency medicine in British Columbia to senior leadership roles he did not initially seek. He reflects on key turning points including mentorship, failure, burnout, and the challenges of moving between clinical and administrative work.

The conversation explores what leadership in medicine really means—showing it is less about titles and more about skills developed over time. Dr. Park also offers candid insight into leading at scale, representing thousands of physicians, and navigating advocacy, competing priorities, and system-level change.
