PCEO 2019

Arvind Cavale, MD, FACE is an Adult Clinical Endocrinologist, currently in his 20th year of practice in the Greater Philadelphia area. He

completed his medical education at Seth GS Medical College, University of Bombay in 1990, Residency in Internal Medicine from the Jamaica

Hospital Medical Center, NY in 1994 and Fellowship in Diabetes, Endocrinology & Metabolism from Nassau County Medical Center, NY in

1999. In between his training stints, Dr. Cavale served as an Internist in a rural hospital in Lutcher, LA from 1994-1996 and as an Instructor in

Medicine in NYC from 1996-97. After being on a partnership track with a fairly large group in Philadelphia, he decided to open his solo practice

in 2002, which he merged with that of a colleague in January 2018, to create Diabetes & Endocrinology Consultants of PA. He was also actively

involved in clinical research since 2010, being a trial site for the Duke Clinical Research Institute and Worldwide Clinical Trials, participating in

some landmark trials such as EXSCEL, Harmony Outcomes and Camellia TIMI 61. In 2016, he, along with his physician colleague and two

Dieticians, co-founded The Endocrine & Metabolic Institute of Greater Philadelphia, LLC , now known as the Signature Diabetes Institute,

through which they developed bundled diabetes prevention and management programs.

Dr. Cavale has seen health care from all angles - patient, caregiver, physician and tax payer; and believes that the decades long crisis in the

American healthcare system is solvable by better use of the free enterprise system, reduced role of government mandates & middlemen, greater

education of the population in general, and appropriate allocation of healthcare dollars with transparency in pricing. His concept of moving the

discussion from a cost-cutting to a value-based purchasing, preceded the recent push in the healthcare industry. In addition, he is convinced that

employers need to be the first to move healthcare financing in the new direction, and that physicians must be ready to cooperatively offer ROI

for employers who wish to utilize their healthcare dollars effectively, and promote engagement by employees. Therefore a new type of leadership

is need in organized medicine that moves physicians away from dependence on government programs, and into actively managing the

economics of their clinical activities, in collaboration with colleagues and employers. This move will help reduce the rate of physician burnout

and restore the patient-physician relationship, while creating a new business model. He hopes that this change will eventually lead to a reform in

medical education and training, where new medical graduates will be comfortable with discussing the value of their services and setting

expectations.

Dr. Cavale has practiced with holistic philosophy for more than 22 years, which involves "reversing the senses", ironically even before reading

the book for the PCEO course. His business philosophy has been to encourage staff to be maximally involved in day-day operations, patient

interactions and to 'own" their position in the office. He owes his success to his wife of 25 years, Kanchan Cavale, who has been his front deck

operator, office manager, tax consultant, CFO, payroll manager, fixer, etc. for over 16 years. She now functions as Practice Administrator in

addition to her "mom" duties. His professional partner, Alan Schorr, DO, has been a friend and supporter, ever since he volunteered to cross-

cover in 2002. His Clinical Manager/Study Coordinator, Nancy Ward, has been instrumental in implementing his goals of integrating human

ingenuity and technology to deliver optimal care to his patients while operating the practice efficiently. Finally, his patients are the main reason

for his practice to have the reputation it has, not just locally but regionally. For this he is forever grateful. He is also grateful to the profession

and particularly to his specialty of Endocrinology, that has placed him in such a crucial position to positively affect so many fellow human

beings. Dr. Cavale hopes that the Physician CEO program will equip him to deliver on his mission for the

second half of his career.

vigorous lives.

Dr. Chan integrates traditional cultural wisdom with modern medical science, creating a truly holistic approach

that focuses on diet, exercise, nutrition, and stress management. Together, with his patients, Dr. Chan strives for a

proactive approach to keeping his patients healthy in the new paradigm of Integrative Age Management Medicine

and Preventive Lipidology in the context of Classical Chinese Medicine that is deeply rooted in the strategic

philosophy of Sun Tzu. He dedicates his skills, knowledge, and years of experience in medicine to his patients

quest for optimum health and happiness. He addresses patients as a whole person, not just as an isolated set of

symptoms. He takes the time to listen to patients history and looks at the interactions among genetic,

environmental, and lifestyle factors that can affect long-term health and cause complex, chronic disorders. Every

year he will perform a thorough integrative cardiometabolic-focused physical to establish a health baseline and

medical goals for a wellness program.

Dr. Chan holds an undergraduate degree in neural science from Brown University and a master’s degree in

physiology from the University of Maryland, Baltimore. After obtaining his doctor of osteopathic medicine degree

from New York College of Osteopathic Medicine, Dr. Chan completed his residency in family medicine, as well

as a fellowship in occupational and environmental medicine at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City.

Since starting his medical career in 1999, and relocating to Phoenix in 2006, Dr. Chan has had the privilege of

caring for many patients and their families. He considers it an honor that he is able to help his patients and share

in their quest for a healthy active life.

In response to the unique health challenges of the 21st century - Chronic Disease, Dr Dornstein has shifted her

professional focus to disease prevention. Currently preparing to take the Lifestyle Medicine Boards in October

2019, Dr Dornstein wants to focus on educating and empowering patients to understand the importance of

personal lifestyle choices. This relatively new clinical discipline called Lifestyle Medicine is centered on

supporting patients to improve their personal health outcomes by addressing and optimizing nutrition, physical

activity, stress management, sleep hygiene, maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding tobacco, and reducing or

eliminating alcohol consumption. The scientific literature tells us that by adopting healthy behaviors we can

prevent nearly 80% of chronic diseases. Dr Dornstein seeks to support behavior modification to reduce the risk

of disease, manage and reverse illness and improve the quality of health in people. She is preparing to become a

Certified Health and Wellness coach with the IPEC program and plans to take the exam in the summer of 2019.

Dr. Dornstein currently spends time mentoring medical students about incorporating the principles of Lifestyle

Medicine into their own lives both for themselves and for the patients they will be caring for in the future.

Currently working on partnering with medical schools to incorporate Lifestyle Medicine into the curriculum in

medical schools. Dr. Dornstein is working with a start up tele-medicine wellness program to to reverse the

declining health of America’s CDL drivers and improve compliance with CDL medical requirements.

In her personal life, Dr. Dornstein enjoys spending time with her husband, 3 kids and 3 dogs. To stay balanced

she walks her dogs and regularly engages in aerobic activity and pilates. Outside interests and passions are 80%

dedicated to DOGS! Dr Dornstein loves all dogs and volunteers with Canine Partners For Life, Paws For

Affection and Working Dog- Penn Vet. She believes in the power of Pet Therapy and would happily write

prescriptions for all humans to hug a puppy 3 times a day and then call her in the morning!
