Dr. Glenn Loomis Explains How Physicians Can Increase Their Pay

Welcome back to On/Offcall!

Dr. Glenn Loomis has held seemingly every position under the sun: family medicine physician, residency director, chief medical officer, now startup CEO – which is why he’s the perfect How I Doctor guest to discuss the range of things physicians can do to improve and diversify our careers.

This week, we released a three-part series with Glenn to ring in the new year. In part 1, we discussed RVUs, conversion factors, and how to ensure fair pay if you’re compensated this way. In part 2, Glenn shares practical strategies to use when negotiating a new employment contract. And in part 3, we discuss powerful interview tips to help you land the right job.

We’re not taught this stuff in medical school, and it’s critical to practicing today. I learned so much from Glenn and am excited to hear your feedback!
