How many days of clinic vs. procedures per week (I am sure this varies)? When do you typically get in/leave? What are calls like for attending pain docs? I would love to hear what algos and other attendings schedule is like in the real world!!

Thanks!

I will give you a 2 week running schedule for me since we have multiple clinics and overlapping schedules:
M-mixed office visits and usually 8-10 procedures under fluoro in office
T-AM-office with a few procedures, PM-Hospital OR for SCS and ITP
W-Surgery center 15-20 procedures
Th-Second clinic location: procedures 3-6 in AM in a hospital, then PM clinic
F- Third clinic-all day

M-same as last M
T-Office all day with some procedures mixed in
W-Office AM, hospital PM
Th-All day pumps and stims implants and trials hospital
F-Third Clinic- all day
