Cardiology Jobs in Portland, Oregon

I was devoured by my huge practice, tired of the group, hospital, and local politics and looking at approaching age 60 without having had much fun in life. I quit.

I started locum tenens work, dialing in as much work as I wanted, at least in theory. In reality, there were periods of famine, when jobs were scarce or when an assignment ended unexpectedly, and compensatory periods when I got worked like a rented mule trying to make up for lost income.

Then, CardioSolution appeared. Predictable, reliable work in a place where I had a house, not a hotel. I could leave my creature comforts there: bicycle, clothes, stuff. I could build a practice again in a place where folks were so grateful to have me around (as opposed to being one of many cardiologists). Professional satisfaction while working 26 weeks a year. I went from burnout to happy again. This is a GREAT lifestyle, so good that I keep postponing retirement.
