Hey, I was hoping some experienced ophthalmologists could answer a couple of questions on what a typical career track looks like.
Do most people start employed by a hospital or private practice? What causes people to lean one way or the other and what's the difference in compensation?
How long does it take to become a partner if you do go into private practice?
If you join a hospital as an employee, is there any scope for advancement to a higher position down the line?
Why are the starting salaries reportedly so low but the median compensation so high? Is there a dramatic jump that happens in your career in terms of compensation? If so, when and why?
