In this episode, Dr. Jimmy Turner and Dr. Kirk Heath talk all things locum tenens, physician entrepreneurship, and how financial independence helps doctors practice medicine on their terms. They discuss Kirk's journey from practicing full-time as a surgeon in a private practice setting to his journey into locums. They take a deep dive into how locums helps doctors individually, how it may be a solution to systemic problems in medicine, and touch on the financial aspects of working as a 1099 versus a W2 physician.
