Whether you are a resident physician looking to start your first job or a well-seasoned doctor seeking a career change, I’m here to offer you the support you need to land your first paying contract.

A Physician’s Guide to Locum Tenens

⁣ I embarked on the journey of travel medicine/ 1099 contracting after feeling burned out and unsatisfied with my career and the direction it was headed. Those were some of the best years of my life. The freedom to create my own schedule, experience different hospital systems, and travel on someone else’s dime is indescribable and I hope every doctor can experience it at least once.⁣

Now nicknamed the “Locums Guru” I have helped several physicians get their start in locums/ contract work. From resident physicians looking to start their first job to well-seasoned doctors seeking a career change, I have offered support to those who are not sure on how to begin.
