Meet our founders

Board-certified emergency medicine physicians Dr. Suneer Chander and Dr. Takashi Nakamura knew their demanding schedules were leading them to burn out. They turned to telemedicine in search of more flexibility and autonomy. What they found were fulfilling careers that let them practice medicine without sacrificing their personal lives or family priorities.

By developing virtual practices themselves, Suneer and Takashi learned exactly what skills and support physicians need to build successful telemedicine careers. Since founding AIR Physician Academy, they've empowered hundreds of doctors to take control of their calendars, expand their job opportunities and income, and create work lives they love.
