After my retirement, I was bored of moping around at home. Even playing golf everyday started to get a bit boring. I didn’t know what to do. I had spent most of my life practicing medicine, I’ve achieved my financial goals, handed over my practice to a colleague, but I wasn’t quite satisfied with the life I was living. So what did I do? I explored the exciting part time opportunity as a medical transcriber.
Being familiar with the health care industry, I chose to become a medical transcriber and in my spare time, I work with colleagues transcribing their work into useful documents and records that they can utilize in their practice.
