Hey,
Cardiologists work hard. But is it possible to keep the work hours around the 45-55h (like EM) mark without having the salary go below 300k $/year? I'm asking for both simple (general) cardiology and cardiology with the various fellowships.
Could a fellowship reduce the work hours or is a cardiologist, no matter whether a fellowship is done or not, doomed to work 60+ hours per week?
EM seemed to be the perfect specialty but I'm afraid the SLOE:s can become an issue to get as an IMG.
