Testimonial

Before I joined Vohra I was working long hours every week. I worked weekends, holidays, and took call. I barely knew my two daughters. I was miserable and burned out. The decision to change careers and leave surgery behind was a difficult one but it has proven to have been the best decision I could have ever made. Now I work 4 days a week 6-8 hours a day. I have no call, no weekends, and there are no emergencies.
