After investing a full year training in geriatric fellowship, I am disappointed by the pay now that I am looking for a job in this field. Will geriatric medicine ever grow to be a competitive well paying speciality? I am thinking about either working in geriatric medicine or working as a hospitalist. Hospitalist do get more than geriatricians. I love geriatrics but the pay is such a let down. Should I go in this field with a hope that in few years it will evolve to be a well paying field or I am better off working as a hospitalist?? Also, If I do decide to work in geriatrics, how do geriatrician increase their income?
