About Ian
About Ian
I'm Dr. Ian McFadden known to many as just Dr. Ian and for the past 40 years I've operated hospitals and healthcare systems, both domestic and abroad and have developed a reputation for cultural enhancement within the hospital to enable hospital staff to provide the best patient experience to consumers who expect the best experience possible.
I started the Hospital Guide company after retiring from 40 years of leading multiple hospitals and health systems to best practice ratings for patient experience. This includes leading several hospitals to a “most improved patient experience rating” as designated by US News. I wanted to help bridge the gap between what hospital consumers want and what hospital and healthcare providers deliver in terms of care delivery expectations. As a result of this training, we are then able to create the best patient experience possible for the consumer leading to achieving the best reputational ratings for the hospital.
This passion for achieving a 5 Star healthcare experience evolved from not only my experience as a Hospital CEO seeking to provide this level of care but also as a consumer having undergone several instances where family members as well as myself experienced encounters with hospitals and health systems that lacked this 5-Star healthcare experience delivery. I know what it takes to meet today’s consumer expectations of a 5-star experience and I can help your staff understand what it takes to deliver this!
I'm Dr. Ian McFadden and after working with hospitals and healthcare systems all over the world for the past 40 years, I've discovered and learned what a five-star health care experience should look like for health care consumers entering the hospital.
I want to help you and your organization better understand the hospital and healthcare consumer today so that your organization can deliver the experience that today's consumer expects. This is what I speak about to organizations as well as to consumers.
My goal in working with you is to help both the consumer and the hospital or healthcare provider achieve the best patient experience possible to deliver the best outcome for the consumer and the best reputation possible for the provider. If you share this same objective, give me a call.
