I am working as a independent contractor Hospitalist in southwest area. 3 weeks on, one week off. We do take night calls for admissions and answer our own pagers.
I have been making 500K by working like this for 3 years but now i have burn out symptoms. Like fighting with nurses, always tired, sleepy etc.
I liked ID as subspecialty and wanted to do it but then family responsibilities lead me to work as hospitalist.
MY question is, should i go for ID fellowship. I heard some people who did ID, now working as hospitalist. I also dont want to repent by leaving this lucrative job.
What should i do, i am really confuse. Any advise would be really helpful
