I am doing a cardiac fellowship and debating between these two jobs. Wondering if people can chime in what they think.
1. Midwest rural small town. Small private practice group. Salary around 700K +/- 50k (looked into the books, appear legit and stable). Vacation 3 weeks (this must be the catch?). Weekly hours around 50/week. Call frequency is 10 weekends and about 45 weekdays based on # of providers. ACT model. barebone benefits.
2. Midwest rural small town. Medium size private practice group. salary 500k +/- 50K. Vacation 12 weeks. 2 years partnership track (375k /year). Fair group. About 6 weekend calls and 27 weekday calls based on number of people available. Avg. hrs per week 45-50. Full spectrum anesthesia including cardiac. ACT model. barebone benefits as well.
What would you pick? Should I ask any other questions? Any red flags I am not seeing?
