There are many reasons why some doctors choose to
pursue temporary assignments. Some physicians have
just completed their residencies, haven’t established
a permanent practice and are interested in trying
something different before settling down. Other physicians
want to experience a variety of facilities and practice
settings to see what fits them best. In some cases,
locum tenens work may be more profitable than running
one’s own practice. Doctors who are nearing
retirement but would like to continue working on
a part time basis appreciate the flexibility afforded
by locum tenens work.
