So I am in the midst of my pain fellowship. I have wanted to do pain for a long time and think it's a good skill set to have.
With that said I have the option of doing a physician advisor job - at the previous hospital where I worked at as a generalist.
My ultimate goal would be to be an administrator, CEO type position. Whether that will be possible or not long term I am not sure.
But I have always like the administrative part.
I feel that an advisor job would definitely be a right move in the right direction, although at the same time I feel like if I went tha troute the interventional aspect would be gone.
I am uncertain what to do. I believe the physician advisor gig pays in the 300k range plus bonus whereas a starting pain gig would pay about the same, I am assuming that a reasonable mid career salary for pain would be in the 500k range?
Thoughts?
Would it be wise to take the physician advisor job if I want a more admin type gig long term? I believe it is also partially home/remote based, which might be a nice thing.
