Hello all,
I have a job question. I wanted to get an idea of what people would do in my position. I am 5 years out of residency but for the past 2 years I have worked in a GI center doing only GI cases. The offer at the time was 300k for M-F work. I figured I would do it for some time and then leave before my skills deteriorated to much. I stayed much longer than anticipated. I got fearful of losing my skills and what that would mean for my future career. So I wanted to get back into doing some regular OR case and started doing some locums on my vacation days while still at my current GI center till I found a new permanent position. Through a contact, I found and was offered an outpatient surgicenter position for 315K M-F schedule. Around the same time my locums position offered me a full time position that would pay 350k including call about 4-5x a month. Now the GI suite that I work for wants to keep me so bad that they offered to pay me 350k for only M-Th allowing me to still do locums on Fridays, weekends, and vacation days. So I have 3 job opportunities. I'm wondering which one I should take.
