Yep
For all our griping and angst on this forum, it's an amazing specialty that's fun to practice and pays great. I wouldn't pick anything else if I had to do it over again.

It’ll work for us…. Aneftp and pgg (I think we must be close in age)…. But I think these kiddos going into anesthesia these days are f-ed. The only places I know that have good crna cultures are mine in bfe SC and the Midwest. There are a handful of practices (sevo) that can stay md only but I don’t see anyone in government or the ASA stopping the mid level movement. I think it’s bad for patient care, etc. but no one listens to me. I don’t know of a single decent job in Texas. The crnas and NPs have better lobbying than we do…. They’re organized and indoctrinated.

The ones who matched will find out soon enough what it is all about.
There are quite a few places in my area of Florida where is md only for calls or weekends.
But u are right it’s heavy act model everywhere I go. 10% solo (or less) daytime it seems
Honestly that’s how I take advantage of the locums market. Since u got lots of docs especially those 20 plus years into their careers who just sign charts daytime and go home and won’t do nights or weekends.
Had a 51 year old doc same age as me last 2.5 weeks at a job that was basically paying him 25k a week w2 (which is really good w2 pay) because he couldn’t handle ob call solo (mind u it’s just 2-3 epidurals a day). Lazy doc unfortunately. All supervision up to 7pm and then doc goes solo
He quit and just doing locums signing off on charts 1099. Doesn’t even bother going to inductions
Working m-f (50 hrs a week)
He’s F’d when that locums gig dries up and it will as new bodies come in.
That’s just the state of our profession
Hard working docs and lazy docs.

That is a sad state of affairs for our profession.
Yup… every time any one of you sits your lazy ass in the lounge and doesn’t go for induction you undermine the profession and make the crnas case for them. Do better.
