How medical care is provided changes with time and technological advances. One constant is the relationship between the healthcare professional and the patient. This is one of the things about being a physician that is crucial to Kutty K. Chandran, M.D.
“In a world of changing healthcare with patient-and-technology integration, physicians should think of how to establish a good patient-doctor relationship,” said Dr. Chandran, who serves as the chief medical officer at Broward Health Coral Springs. “Without a good relationship, the patient and the physician may not be satisfied with the care that is provided.”
Since 2016, he has provided leadership and oversight for strategic planning, business development, and the recruitment and retention of physicians at the 250-bed hospital in western Broward County.
“I am very proud of becoming the chief medical officer after holding multiple leadership roles, including chief of staff at Broward Health Coral Springs,” Dr. Chandran said.
Dr. Chandran is a member and past president (2011 – 2012) of the Broward County Medical Association. He also holds the designation of Fellow of the American College of Physicians. Over the years, Dr. Chandran’s professional affiliations included the Florida Medical Association, the American Medical Association, the American Society of Addiction Medicine, and the American College of Medical Quality.
Dr. Chandran received his medical degree from Ross University School of Medicine in Dominica. He completed his internal medicine residency at St. Elizabeth’s Hospital in New Jersey. He is board certified in internal medicine and has been practicing medicine for 30 years.
