A leading medical center in Maine experienced instability within its oncology department due to physician attrition and inconsistent locum tenens coverage, which resulted in disruptions to patient care. To restore continuity while focusing on permanent recruitment, leadership engaged Medicus to provide coverage through a single, consistent locum tenens oncologist.
The locum oncologist Medicus provided became an integral part of our team from day one. His responsiveness, leadership, and dedication made a real difference, not only for our staff but for the patients who relied on him. Our nurse navigators consistently shared how positive their experiences were working alongside him, and patient feedback was equally strong. If he weren't so commited to the locum lifestyle, we would have hired him full time without hesitation!" - Hospital leadership
