About us

Your Trusted Partner in Locum Tenens Excellence

Locums United isn’t just another staffing company—it’s a movement. Founded by board-certified emergency physician and industry thought leader Dr. Ali Chaudhary, our organization was born out of one core truth: medicine is broken—but it doesn’t have to break physicians or hospitals.

We exist to transform healthcare staffing into something smarter, faster, and far more human. Whether you're a high-performing clinician ready to take control of your schedule, or a hospital department director scrambling to fill critical shifts, Locums United delivers what matters most—real solutions with zero fluff.

For Physicians: A Career on Your Terms

We don’t believe in cold calls, commission-driven recruiters, or lowball offers. At Locums United, physicians are treated like the professionals they are—with respect, transparency, and top-tier pay from day one.

Our network is built entirely on referrals, conferences, and real relationships—not scraped resumes or spam campaigns. We connect you directly with high-autonomy, premium locum opportunities that align with your lifestyle and goals. Whether you’re looking to earn more, work less, or escape burnout entirely, we’ve got the system to help you reclaim your time, increase your income, and own your career​

For Hospitals: Elite Locum Coverage

We know how costly it is to place the wrong provider in the wrong role. We’ve lived it. That’s why Locums United operates like an elite strike team—not a temp agency.

We deploy only vetted, clinically strong professionals who can plug in and lead under pressure—day one. Built and led by practicing physicians, we understand both the frontline chaos and the administrative complexity of hospital staffing. That means we don’t just fill roles—we solve problems, fast​.

From urgent shift coverage to long-term stabilization strategies, our turnkey solutions come with white-glove support: streamlined credentialing, 24/7 responsiveness, and consistent check-ins to ensure performance.

Dr. Ali Chaudhary

As a physician who has navigated the challenges and rewards of locum tenens, I know how transformative this career path can be. My journey in locums has given me the freedom to work on my own terms, achieve financial independence, and provide quality care to patients in various healthcare settings. I founded Locums United with the goal of helping other physicians experience the same level of success and satisfaction in their careers.
