Location and Lifestyle
South Carolina packs a lot of variety into a small state, with mountains in the northwest and beaches along the Atlantic. On your days off, you can hike to a waterfall or paddle through one of the state's flooded forests. Saturdays in the fall belong to college football, and fans in every corner of the state follow game day.
About Interim Physicians
Ken Teufel, MD, founded Interim Physicians in 1979 after selling his solo family practice in small-town Texas to cover for physicians who couldn't get away. As medical director for 42 years, he was one of the founding figures of locum tenens, and his standards still decide which clinicians Interim presents.
Interim staff members average 14 years with the company, so the recruiter who places a clinician is the same one who calls about the next assignment. Clinicians and facility clients have rated Interim 9 or 10 out of 10 often enough to earn ClearlyRated's Best of Staffing Diamond award.
