RVU goals and expectations
Hi all, I'm on the trail for PCCM jobs and was offered an academic position in a large coastal metroplex. They quoted a wRVU goal of 6200 with a bonus of $30 per wRVU over that. I'm new to billing side of things. How attainable or "busy" is the RVU goal and is this typically attached on all academic or PP jobs? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Multiple experiences of the same "type"
So I have a good dilemma: I have like 20 meaningful things with meaningful amounts of hours to put into my Activities section.
Some of these things are similar or at least have some connecting thread, i.e. summer camp for kids with epilepsy / summer camp for LGBT+ kids, volunteering at several hospitals but in different roles/depts, several somewhat related jobs within separate industries or sub-disciplines, multiple disparate hobbies, etc.
Should I:
- pick the "best" one of the like...

How stable are 700k/year locums jobs?
There is one place in my area that pays 700k for locums at 40 hours per week. How stable are these jobs long-term? Could someone work these jobs for say 2-3 years straight? Or would you be replaced within months forcing you to find a new job?
Would a physician working this job be able to purchase a $3 million house without losing sleep at night? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

40-50 patients a day. How?
In my first year of attendinghood looking to move jobs.
Group I'm considering with fairly high overhead costs. Current pain docs seeing 40-50 patients a day on clinic days with encounters 15 minutes with double bookings for procedural followup. No opioid management. In spite of asking, did not have the opportunity to shadow in clinic.
I feel like this forum has led me to believe most docs seeing 20-30 a day or so. For those pushing above 40 patients daily (particularly in the 40-60...

Switching gap year jobs right after applying?
I’ve been working as a scribe/MA for almost 6 months now and I was recently offered a scribe job at a different clinic that would start at the end of May (so I would have 8 months at my current job, >1000 hours). I really want to take it because my current job is becoming increasingly toxic. I’m always walking on eggshells with my boss and it’s causing me a ton of anxiety every day. This new job will be paying more and seems like a better environment, and it’ll also give me exposure to...

Options for Clinical Psychology Work Abroad
Hi all!
I'm currently a 5th year clinical psychology Ph.D. student who will be starting my predoctoral internship program this summer (which is a little more research-oriented than average). My wife works remotely and has some interest in us potentially living and working abroad (either remotely with US-based jobs, or employed positions in the new country). I'm wondering if anyone in the SDN psychology community has any advice, suggestions, or resources about how to pursue...

Public notice: stop taking PE jobs
What do all PE practices have in common?
They all need employee producers before they can churn and burn the practice to next buyer for that sweet 10x EBITDA multiplier.
Ophthalmology is a small field w/ greater than 50% of workforce over 55, and if all young ophthalmologists collectively stuck together and said no to PE jobs, it would be game over. This is already happening to some degree.
If young ophthalmologists banded together about tail insurance clauses and asked “partnership...

Purely from a financial perspective, how much more money do pulm/crit attendings roughly make than hospitalists?
Hello! Internal medicine PGY-2 here!
I’m trying to decide if I want to apply to pulm/crit fellowships in a few months from now, or if I would prefer to be a hospitalist instead. I’m considering all aspects of this decision, one of which is the financial incentives of both jobs. Of course this decision is not based solely on money, I would never do something like that, but I just don’t know very much about this topic and I’d like to know more.
Like, all else being equal, roughly how much...

Cardiac Anesthesia job market in Los Angeles
I'm currently finishing up my cardiac fellowship. Due to a recent change in my spouse's job, there's a strong possibility that we are heading to LA.
I was wondering if anyone here is able to provide a general overview (i.e. compensation/benefits structure, average earnings, MD only vs. supervision, etc) of the private practice job market for LA. TBH, I'm not really familiar with jobs in southern California, and we haven't even considered moving there until this recent turn of events for my...

Alternatives to pharmacy?
In my area I'm not seeing a lot of hospital jobs and I refuse to go into retail. I saw on Indeed Dental Hygeneists make $50/hr. Worth going back to school for two years? lol. Seriously, alternative careers? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

When will the gravy train end?
Pharmacist pay and work conditions have gone downhill since 2005 or so. Sure there are the occasional high paying unicorn jobs in CA and similar places that offer annual raises to keep up with inflation, but those are the exception not the rule. For the most part pharmacist pay has been stagnant for the past ten years or so especially compared to inflation these past few years. The pandemic created some opportunities for high pay but that was a black swan event.
All basic expenses like...
