Who reprimanded you?
my boss. as i said, he was VERY pro-crna; our model was one in which the crnas pretty much practiced independently although the hospital bylaws required supervision. it's one of many reasons i left that job.
Did you tell him to go F himself? I hope you did.
Another invertebrate chief, oh yea!!!!
he wasn't an invertebrate;.
Get the highest paying Podunk job you can find and pay it off asap.

The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is.
IlDestriero, how much do you think a new grad should ask for when applying to one of these podunk jobs?
Just remember Bird, it's not how much you make, it's how much you earn per hour you work. q3 in house is a lot different than q5 rarely called in.

All Dr's should go by if a you want to provide anesthesia to a patient, provide primary care medicine etc. Then go to medical school if no medical school physicians should fight to exclude these people having any type of independent practice rights
Jackets, I'm totally behind what you're saying but Lmfaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bala[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfUU6coziu4[/YOUTUBE]

Since the writing is on the wall regarding the future of this specialty (heavy CMS cuts and CRNAs winning) I think anesthesiologists need to adapt by encroaching into other fields of medicine. Since anesthesiologists are known as "proceduralists", I think they should get into IR before these DIRECT programs start expanding. If we can get trained in IR specifically during residency or at least be eligible for the fellowships, I think anesthesiologists can maintain a very nice income. Thoughts?
I think that's almost as ridiculous as bumping a 2-1/2-year-dead thread to propose it.Since the writing is on the wall regarding the future of this specialty (heavy CMS cuts and CRNAs winning) I think anesthesiologists need to adapt by encroaching into other fields of medicine.

... "superspecialist" CRNAs from their week long super specialty training programs.
Not if they want to be "super specialty" CRNAs, that's a full 5 days man. With a couple short days for skiing/beach time, of course.Uh, that would be weekEND, not week long.
God it is sickening.
I can't imagine the vile bilious reflux that the PP guys get while reading this.
They WERE buying into it, but BLADEMDA I believe posted a thread that suggests that NAPA is for sale by the venture capitalists that bought it five years ago.Everyone says doom and gloom, yet Wall Street and venture capital is buying into anesthesia.

F*ck... what are medical students supposed to do then if they don't like chronic care management, surgery, or EM?
I want to do gas but when successful attendings here spout gloom and doom, I hesitate bc I value their opinions. That being said, I haven't met a gas doc in real life who is disappointed with their career choice.That is for you to figure out, not anybody else.

Terrible job markets and not for people who are not visual learners.Radiology or pathology.
I would be exceedingly happy making 300-400K working ~50 hrs/week or so.Will you be happy making 3-400? The guys that were making 5-600 won't.
It's more gloom than doom.

I read these articles and I think again and again, "WTF are you talking about?"

Blade, I think that is still pretty good for non-surgical specialties nowadays. Cards /GI/Onc start around 180K for new grads in big cities.Be careful what you wish for because you will likely get it when it comes to salary and work week in Anesthesiology. I'd like to add there is a big difference in the real world between $300K and $400K with Anesthesiologists quickly falling to the lower of the two as salaried positions become the norm. Many of us have stressful jobs to be earning only $300K while others do solo MD anesthesia at an outpatient center where that pay is quite good.
I've posted many times that Anesthesiologists are needed in the USA and that the pay scale is likely to be in the $250-$350 range for a graduate circa 2019.
I'm pissed, but you can only b*tch about it for so long. You eventually have no choice but to sack up, pick up the broom, and go to work.you shouldn't be when some suit is stealing half of your earnings and then the government takes half of what's left while they both tell you what to do
Exactly, I meant those fields are not for people who are not strong visual learners. I dislike memorizing path and rad pics.Uh... Both fields are entirely visual! That's all they f ucking do is look at stuff and make diagnoses based on what it looks like.
Market be damned, those are your only options unless you suck it up and do something you said you don't like.
What would you say is the net take home pay for a 300K W-2 after the above expenses?I thought the same thing as a Med Student until I earned $300K then got to earn $600K. Your take home pay will be eaten up by taxes, FICA, 401K, etc so don't expect to live lavishly on $300K. Sure, you will be comfortable on $300K but you won't feel wealthy with a W-2 of $300K.
Taxes
Disability
FICA/SS
Health Insurance
401K (max out)
Student Loans
F.U. Account
After Tax Investments/Savings
Don't respond with the usual B.S. about comparing Physicians to Janitors as I'm comparing Physician Anesthesiologists to Physician Ortho/ENT/etc.
