Direct answer: Physician Portfolio Careers—educational context for cardiologists exploring locum tenens. Locum Career Hub recruits MD/DO cardiologists and connects you with hospitals and groups when mutual fit exists.

Stop calling it a side hustle
Portfolio work is intentional career design: multiple income and meaning streams with boundaries.
Hustle culture burns clinicians. Design culture sustains them.
Common cardiology portfolios
Employed base + rare locums; locums-primary + teaching; clinic-heavy + imaging reads; semi-retired glidepath blocks.
Write your constraints first.
Risk management
Contracts, malpractice, non-competes, and tax structure all change when you stack work.
Use CPAs and attorneys for real complexity—this is educational.

FAQ
- What happens after I submit the cardiology inquiry form?
- Yes—a cardiology recruiter reviews submissions personally. If there are plausible locum opportunities in the states and subspecialty you listed, we will reach out, usually within one business day. If nothing fits, we will say so clearly.
- Are you the hospital employer?
- No. Locum Career Hub is a recruiting service. Your clinical contract would be with the hiring hospital or group if you accept an assignment.
- How does licensing work?
- Requirements vary by assignment. Share current licenses and target dates—we map compact eligibility, full licenses, and realistic privileging timelines.
- How does this page relate to physician portfolio career?
- This page is educational context for cardiologists exploring locum tenens—not individualized medical, legal, or tax advice. Submit an inquiry when you want recruiter-led matching.
- Do you recruit non-cardiologists?
- No. We work with cardiologists only—general, interventional, EP, heart failure, imaging, structural, preventive, and pediatric cardiology.
- Is portfolio work only for late career?
- No. Early-career physicians use it carefully for debt and sampling—with eyes on credentialing time.
- Does this mean leaving medicine?
- Usually the opposite: staying clinically with a livable design.
