🎙️ Welcome back to another insightful episode of The Physicians and Properties Podcast with host, Dr. Alex Schloe.
💡 What if the key to transforming your medical career wasn’t more degrees—but more freedom?
In this episode, Dr. Schloe sits down with Dr. Naomi Lawrence-Reid, a board-certified pediatrician and the founder of Doctoring Differently. After walking away from a traditional pediatrics job, Dr. Naomi has built a flexible, fulfilling, and financially abundant life—quadrupling her income while working on her own terms.
They dive into the world of non-traditional physician work, covering per diem jobs, locums, VA disability exams, expert witness consulting, and even medical aesthetics. If you’ve ever felt trapped by the golden handcuffs of medicine, this episode is your permission slip to pivot—with purpose.

✔️ How per diem and locums work can restore your time, flexibility, and income
 ✔️ What VA disability exams and expert witness work actually look like—and how much they pay
 ✔️ Why medical aesthetics and medical directorships are untapped income streams for physicians
 ✔️ How Dr. Naomi built a six-figure side hustle (and then some!) without leaving medicine behind

 ✔️ How Doctoring Differently is helping hundreds of physicians break free
🔥 Key Takeaways:
✔️ You don’t need permission to pivot—but if you do, here it is

 ✔️ Nonclinical work isn’t failure—it’s strategy
 ✔️ You can build a career that aligns with your values and your bank account
