Today I present another classic interview, this time from 2019. In this show, Dr. Andrew Wilner, author of The Locum Life, describes why he loves medical writing and locum tenens as career options.

In Part 1, Andrew recalls how much he loved writing, and how he felt compelled to get back into writing after completing his initial medical training. Andrew describes his journey from internal medicine in the U.S., to neurology training in Canada, and from clinical medicine to full-time medical writer. We also hear about his very early locums position working in an emergency room.

During our conversation, he described the exact approach that enabled him to write for multiple medical publications, while remaining current in his specialty of Neurology. In Part 2 we’ll get much more into locum tenens work, and how he took what he learned to create his recently released book.
