I’m only 3 years out of training but haven’t done OB since residency. Might be pigeonholing myself for future jobs but loving the no OB.
It's a nice pigeonhole to be in.I’m only 3 years out of training but haven’t done OB since residency. Might be pigeonholing myself for future jobs but loving the no OB.
No I haven't done afe. But Afe is once in a lifetime. Just have to be an agile when the time comes. No way to prepare for that otherwise. Use exotic potions to keep them alive as best you can to bridge to higher care.You've never crashed on ECMO due to AFE with complete thrombo-embolization of the pulmonary arteries/RV or had to do a crash section/hysterectomy with MTP on a morbidly obese patient with no pre-natal care who was bleeding out who you find out later had multiple elective abortions and C/S.s with placenta percreta.
Experience is a sometimes harsh instructor.
The first thing I’ll give up is OB, not quite ready yet, but in 10yrs absolutelyI haven’t done ob since residency. I think it has increased my lifespan. Too stressful. Constant pages , challenging patients, and annoying nurses.
OB - the bane of every anesthesiologist's existence.
Those that are earlier in their career and don't do ob, do you feel like you've lost the skill and can't do it anymore? Or do you feel like just a few shifts and you'd be back to good?
Not worth it.But $$$
Please do yourself and your patients a huge favor, and learn some humility. Docs like you can get themselves in a LOT of trouble when you are first starting out. Seriously, I am not trying to be a jerk, you need to realize that you still have a lot to learn, and you should be open to that. I’ve been doing this job for over 20 years, and I am still learning.Alright disclaimer I'm just a resident but this job sounds un friggin believable. Can't imagine a better job honestly. This is well past any of the groups I'm currently interviewing with. Almost a damn joke it's so good. 14-16 weeks vacation? Come on man. I don't care how bad ob is at night. Ob is easy as hell. The only thing that would make this a moderately difficult job on night call is if you're getting blasted by peri arrest traumas.
Is this a troll post by OP?
There is no such thing as complex ob no matter what high risk labels OB says. Drive the needle push the drug. Get the video scope for hostile airway. If things get bad cause of bad tone bomb the patient with volume. Ob patients can tolerate so much anyways. Again, ob is easy.
14 weeks vacation and 550k salary. Out by 3 or 4 most days. I mean let's be real here.
If you aren't a level I trauma center, which I surmise you aren't because no mention of trauma, this is a cush job.
Yeah, can’t tell if this kid is for real or not, so bombastic.
