Heme/Onc Job Offer Discussion

[bobow98]

Does anyone have good experience or know-how with private practices in the Northeast, specifically New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, or Pennsylvania that are hiring in the next year or two? I have seen NY Cancer and Blood and Astera Care as options but it seems that they are associated with OneOncology. Does anyone know of or work with more private groups that might be hiring? I’m currently a second year fellow

You youngins need to consider other parts of the country if you actually care about finding something that pays decently. Otherwise just accept your fate of being underpaid if you want to stay northeast.

Underrate areas:
MidWest (Iowa, Wisconsin)
PNW
Southeast (like southern VA, North FL)
Southwest

Where do you move to make the most money if open to moving anywhere? (I dislike the entirety of the USA equally)

Where do you move to make the most money if open to moving anywhere? (I dislike the entirety of the USA equally)

I mean areas like Iowa, Minnesota, ND paying around $500/hr or 5000-6000$ a day for Oncology shifts, In Illinois area seen around 4500-5000 aday.

Nice why don’t more people move there to grind 300 shifts and make 1.8M/year?

You can find subspecialty-focused general onc jobs in Indiana, Omaha, North Dakota, etc., starting at 700k+.

Because that's a terrible f***ing way to live.

That's a LOT of oncological histories to read through, goals of care, multidisciplinary discussions, and answering "Is it from the cancer doc" or "what can i do about my fatigue". Your patients show up with a notebook to write in, even for the 20-minute follow-ups. This is not an outpatient specialty where you can churn and burn without burning yourself out.

I think most of us want something sustainable for years, not just a few months out of the year.
Most of us want a place for our families to settle down and be happy.
Most of us want access to other things outside of work nearby.
Therefore, you should not really be picking between

1) BFE 4 hours from airport, nothing else to do there, live next to cattle only, and make 2+ milly a year
2) Be broke working full time in an oversaturated city or location or where the houses cost 1.5 million for a 2 bed 2 bath


There are lots of jobs out there where people can work 4 days a week with 1 admin day, see 15-18 patients a day or maybe fewer, take 7-9 weeks off a year and still bring home a decent wage. They just happen to be in the second and third tier cities in the USA outside of the Northeast.

Here is a random list of cities from google for tier 3.
You can find really good oncology jobs in or within 1 hour of downtown of all of these below cities.

• Albany, NY Metro
• Atlanta, GA Metro
• Baltimore, MD Metro
• Baton Rouge, LA Metro
• Birmingham, AL Metro
• Charleston, SC Metro
• Charlotte, NC Metro
• Cincinnati, OH Metro
• Cleveland, OH Metro
• Dallas/Fort Worth, TX Metro
• Detroit, MI Metro
• Houston, TX Metro
• Indianapolis, IN Metro
• Las Vegas, NV Metro
• Milwaukee, WI Metro
• Nashville, TN Metro
• New Orleans, LA Metro
• Omaha, NE Metro
• Orlando, FL Metro
• Phoenix, AZ Metro
• Pittsburgh, PA Metro
• Research Triangle, NC Metro
• Salt Lake City, UT Metro
• St. Louis, MO Metro
• Tampa, FL Metro
• Twin Cities, MN/WI Metro
