Have you ever dreamed of living abroad but wondered how you’d make your career work, too? There are more options than you might think.
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Ashwini Bapat, a palliative care physician and co-founder of Hippocratic Adventures, a community for US-trained physicians exploring life and careers abroad. Dr. Bapat walks us through five different paths physicians are taking to make life abroad work, and what she’s learned from helping them get there. Her most important piece of advice? Start with the life you want to build, then find the career that supports it.
In this episode we’re talking about:
- Five career paths physicians can use to make living abroad work
- The pros and trade-offs of practicing medicine locally in another country
- How physicians can use telemedicine to continue seeing US patients from abroad
- Creative ways to combine living abroad with blocks of clinical work in the US
- Exploring pharma, medical education, consulting, medical writing, and entrepreneurship abroad
- How a sabbatical can give physicians space to explore a new life or career
- Four questions to ask yourself before deciding what your career abroad should look like
