Cardiothoracic Surgeon -

"I began looking at locum tenens opportunities several years ago due to limited job openings in my area. LocumTenens.com helps with all credentialing and assignment logistics. Being at the height of my cardiothoracic surgery career, if I am going to be away from my family, I want to work as much as possible. My recruiter gets me jobs that allow me to operate a ton, which is what I love to do."
