Location and Lifestyle
Washington stretches from Pacific beaches and island ferries in the west, past volcanic mountain peaks, to big open farm country in the east. On your days off, you can hike or camp at one of Washington's state parks. Fresh salmon and a serious coffee culture show up in towns all over the state. You're on for one or two weeks a month with no call, so the rest of the month is yours.
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.
