What physicians are saying

When preparing for my maternity leave, despite months of searching and outreach, I had no choice but to close my practice. It was heartbreaking, not just for me, but for my patients and my team. That’s why I believe so strongly in what LOCVM is doing. They're not just building a platform, they're creating a community of support and sustainability for physicians. LOCVM offers the kind of solution I wish I’d found when I needed it most. The more of us there are, the stronger this network becomes.

As a clinic owner, finding locum coverage has always been one of the most stressful parts of running a practice. Whether it’s for planned vacations, medical leave, or just to give my team a break… it’s never been easy. That’s why I’m excited about what LOCVM is building. It’s a smarter, more physician-centered way to connect with locums. We need this. The more of us who sign up, the more powerful it becomes.

I’ve watched friends travel the world or step back to rest, and every time I wondered if I could ever do the same. I explored options, social media forums, and groups but it always felt like a gamble. I eventually gave up on the idea. Not because I didn’t need the break, but because the system made it feel impossible. LOCVM changes that. It’s not just a tool, it’s a mindset shift: physicians deserve real options and real support.
