Oregon all 6 years. Many take a break during gen surg and heavy service months though. Positions passed down to incoming residents each year.Are there any OMFS programs that allow moonlighting?
Baylor moonlighting is only during the med school years.
Can anyone touch on
1: how often you can moonlight in these programs (for example, once a week)
2: What does a typical shift look like (for example, holding a pager for 14 hours)
3: what the hourly pay is like
1.) At Baylor you are expected to moonlight extensively during your time in Medical School at Texas Tech. We do the second and third years of medical school. During your first year of residency (MS2) you work around 30-35 hours a week including both day and night clinic. During your second year (MS3) , you are limited to working only at the night clinic around 3 nights a week after you finish your time at clerkships and one Saturday a month.Can anyone touch on

Can someone explain to a noob here what "moonlighting" means?
Moonlighting during residency is taking your down time during residency to work part time for an office.Can someone explain to a noob here what "moonlighting" means?
Dude, my favorite site for helping people understand this principle.A quick google search will answer your question.
As a side note, one of the most important skill sets in a resident or student is his or her willingness to try to figure things out on his or her own before asking a senior for answers. I think I was in fifth grade when I was told "try three before me."
I like answering questions on this forum but jamming it up with questions that have already been answered or are easy to answer by doing some internet research is frustrating to see.
