Hey everyone,
Just wondering if people thought it made sense to attend a private endodontic residency?
If you look at a school like USC, 1 year with living expenses is $140k. So two years is $280k.
Assuming a general practice associate makes $120k, over two years, that's obviously over a half million dollar opportunity cost.
Over a 30 year career, if an endodontist works in a metropolitan area and averages $200-220k, does it make sense to go?
Or, over a 30 year career, if an endodontist works in a more rural area and makes $300-400k, does it make sense to go?
And I'm also considering more intangible factors like better job security, more of a chance to live in a metropolitan area and to be able to live comfortably, and a simpler business model/less employees.
Thanks for your feedback.
