I'm excited to share that I've just wrapped up recording my debut podcast episode in Austin alongside my cousin, colleague, and co-founder of Locums United, Dr. Mohammad Anwar. Having grown up with shared dreams of practicing medicine, it's a full-circle moment to delve into the locum tenens sphere together.

In this episode, we explore our extensive eight-year journey as full-time locum doctors, providing insights into both the practical and business aspects of the industry. We touch on various topics such as the lifestyle benefits, navigating corporate medicine, and considerations around benefits and health insurance, among others.
