About Me

I used to complain about another decade of toiling for the Big Medicine Machine. I was envious of others who could break the shackles of employment and make each day their own. 

Freelancer, entreprenuer, solopreneur – there’s no way a clinician can recapture their life in the same way.

Wrong.  

Let me show you how I did just that.

I successfully completed one residency and two fellowships, all at top flight quaternary care centers. I gained board certification in all three domains, paid back my loans, and started my career.

Then, in 2022, I realized I was burnt out.

So, I decided to walk away from my prestigious, full-time ‘big’ hospital job.

I believed that I could find a better balance between work and life.

With the blessing of my wife, I had confidence in my abilities and put myself out there. I found the answer in self-employment as a contract physician.

My mission is to be the “Lifestyle Locum Doctor.”

My first goal is to help 100 clinicians – doctors, nurses, physician assistants, etc. – find true satisfaction from working independently and coach them through the process.
