Lee Tomlinson Biography

Lee Tomlinson is dedicated to inspiring healthcare professionals to prioritize compassionate care in modern healthcare practices. This focus is not only to enhance patient and family experiences but also to improve healthcare providers' well-being and job satisfaction.

Tomlinson's journey to this realization was far from straightforward. A former award-winning television producer, movie studio executive, owner, and TED Talk speaker, Tomlinson's life was profoundly influenced by his personal battle with Stage 3+ throat cancer. This experience exposed him to the severe impact of medical treatment devoid of compassion, pushing him into deep despair. A simple yet profound act of compassion from a caring doctor and friend was pivotal in reigniting his will to survive and fostering a commitment to enhancing compassion in healthcare.

With a reinvigorated zest for life, Tomlinson founded The C.A.R.E. Effect Movement, aiming to restore and emphasize the critical role of compassion in healthcare. This initiative strives to address and mitigate burnout among America's 12.5 million healthcare professionals, encouraging them to offer more compassionate care. Additionally, Tomlinson is an adjunct professor and the author of several works focusing on the importance of compassion in medical settings. His notable keynote, "The Naked Truth About Compassionate C.A.R.E.," shares his personal cancer battle and the transformative power of compassion. Tomlinson also speaks on various topics, including professional burnout, the unforeseen blessings of surviving cancer, and the importance of superior customer service in healthcare settings. His impactful presentations have earned him multiple standing ovations and high praise, with commendations from respected figures like Jeffrey Weisgerber from Eli Lilly and Company, Dr. Dean Edell, and Shola Richards. Additionally, his athletic spirit is showcased through his endeavors as a Paralympic ski racer.
