Physician Resources
Make your next move with confidence.
Straight guidance and vetted resources on the things that actually shape a physician career — compensation, contracts, licensing, and more — from a team that places physicians every day.
Where to start
A short, honest map of what to research before you sign. Explore a topic, then talk to a recruiter who knows your specialty and market.
Compensation & Benchmarks
Know your market value before you talk numbers — base pay, wRVU productivity, signing and retention bonuses, and how they swing by region and setting.
Contract Review
The fine print decides your next few years — non-competes, tail/malpractice coverage, call, termination, and the path to partnership. Read it closely, and have a healthcare attorney do the same.
Practice Settings
Employed health system, private group, academic, locums, or telehealth — each trades autonomy, income model, and lifestyle differently. We help you weigh them against your goals.
Licensing & Credentialing
Practicing across state lines is easier than it used to be — the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact fast-tracks licensure in member states, often in weeks instead of months.
Student Loans & Forgiveness
PSLF, the NHSC, and state repayment programs can erase six figures — but eligibility hinges on your employer and setting. Check before you choose a job, not after.
Relocation & Community
A location is a family decision — cost of living, schools, a partner’s career, and community weigh as much as the role itself. Research it the way you would the job.
