• Becoming a Physician Author. If you have ever dreamed of becoming a novelist or non-fiction author and would like more information on how to make your dream a reality, please click here for information on SEAK’s writing resources for physicians.
  
  
• Expert Witnessing. Physicians who serve as expert witnesses earn on average more than $400 per hour for their time. Our goal for SEAK trained physician expert witnesses is that after 3-5 years they will be able to earn over $100,000/year by devoting 1 day per week to expert witness work. If you like to teach and are interested in applying your communications and medical skills in a different way, please consider the following SEAK resources:

• Independent Medical Examiner. If your specialty is orthopedics, PM&R, neurology, neurosurgery or psychiatry, you are well positioned to be able to supplement or replace your clinical income by performing exams for insurance companies. You are paid on average $500-$2,500 or more for each exam, depending upon complexity and there is relatively little potential malpractice liability. For more information on becoming an independent medical examiner, please see:

  - SEAK’s National Directory of Independent Medical Examiners
  
  
• File Review Consulting. An excellent way to both supplement your clinical income and build experience for a non-clinical career is to perform file reviews, peer reviews, chart reviews, etc. These can be done from home and are low stress assignments. You are usually paid $85-$150/hour for this work. Board certification and active clinical practice are very helpful. To get started, please consider SEAK’s National Directory of Medical File Review Consultants.
