About this listen

I’m joined by Dr Joyce Cheung (family/palliative MD) and Ange Bernabe (PhD, economist) to talk about Locvm—an Ontario-born, physician-designed platform making it easier to find and be a locum.

We dig into why sharing the load is system-saving: clear contracts, payment flow, accountability, and a real pool that supports parental leave, illness, sabbaticals, and rural coverage.

We also talk about their life and business partnership as a married power couple, and what lessons they’ve learned about collaboration in that process.

If we want a more humane system, we need tools and norms that let doctors step away without compromising care - it was a joy to connect with these two healthcare humans who are bringing that vision to life!
