Episode 1: How We Got Here – From NP to CRNA | Host Introduction
Welcome to the debut episode of The Nomadic Clinician! I’m your host, David Warren — a dual-certified Emergency Nurse Practitioner and Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on my own journey: from the high-pressure world of emergency departments as an NP, to the deep dive into nurse anesthesia training, and now full circle as a practicing CRNA.
You’ll hear why I created this podcast — a space for honest conversations about the advanced practice journey, career pivots, and the realities of locum life. I talk about how working in emergency medicine shaped my perspective, what pushed me to go back to school, and how traveling as a clinician has transformed my approach to work and life.
Whether you're considering NP or CRNA school, already practicing, or thinking about transitioning between roles — this episode sets the tone for everything to come. Expect transparency, tips, and tales from the frontlines of healthcare.
