Going after ABFAS is the single worst thing a job applicant can do. Telling people to pursue ABFAS is bad advice
Click to expand...
ABFAS alone has never hurt an applicant other than if they are overqualified for a job.

You (and certainly many others) have done fine without ABFAS and might have things you do not like about ABFAS, but this is horrible advice. Many jobs still have a requirement for ABFAS, and some of the jobs that say both boards can apply, still have a preference for ABFAS. It is changing and might be technically illegal, but many hospitals still require ABFAS for surgical privileges also.

At the very least one should get ABPM immediately and become board qualified by ABFAS. One can decide if they feel ABFAS is necessary, worth the effort or something they will be able to obtain. Certainly one should not become a slave to the process and organization as ABFAS does not guarantee a great job.


The real problem is saturation/horrible job market. If podiatrists were in short supply it would not matter what board one was certified by and we would all be recruited while in residency and while in practice. We would also all paid like MDs, DOs and CRNAs with good salalries and benefits and jobs readily available in most metros. This is not podiatry and it might never be. Make saturation go away and the odds are high the boards merge. No one can predict with certainty if or when this will happen.
If the boards merged tomorrow with saturation there would just be another filter or requirement like a fellowship or certain type of fellowship for jobs.

The kid is a pgy3 or just a couple months out of residency (yet an expert on podiatry boards, jobs, contracts)... his views will likely change soon enough.

$100 says no apology is ever given, but that's the interwebs 😛

I agree with PM News. It’ll be nice to have more representation of fair job offers on there. I have no doubt yours will get filled fast if so.

This is podiatry not much has changed.

Some of the better groups do not seem to post on PM News for whatever reason. Probably because of their reputation for revolving door associate jobs and to avoid the visibility from non job seekers.

APMA classified and ACFAS are also good options if you want to avoid PM News.

You could reach out to a couple of the closest residency directors also.

The PP podiatry jobs on the more mainstream medical job sites usually have the hospital helping with recruitment and offering a salary guarantee.

These days, all of the job podiatry boards are heavily scoured. You will do fine and have big response if you have a decent offer and phrase it well.

I always did word of mouth, then send letters to local directors (good programs only), then PodiatryCareers (ACFAS), then PodiatryExchange (free for PP and fair visibility). I have found good interviews and hired ppl from all of those methods at past gigs. Indeed is fairly good also, but that's more for hospital jobs or non-doc hires typically.

...I would also post it here on SDN even if it's just broad strokes and "PM me for details" (assuming you get past the word of mouth and good local residencies point). More ppl than you think read on here, and at least they are ppl interested enough in podiatry/work that it'll probably be better than avg views - or may pass it along to colleagues for you.

I would probably avoid PM News or APMA... just too many junk jobs and mobile jobs, etc. They're also not sorted well or updated as often as the other posting places. It tends to get your email or fax bombed with bad apps or people who just apply to almost everything (mostly residents or struggling practitioners). You could use those only if you don't get enough interest with the better ones. Ymmv, good luck.

It is a great job, but the location is mediocre at best.

Only in podiatry you can be paid like a physician with a 60K signing bonus and great benefits or take a job with 80K salary in a higher cost of living area with poor benefits.

Give me a 60k signing bonus and I’ll practice in Ukraine. That’s the highest signing bonus I’ve seen on a podiatry job offer tbh

95% of pod jobs don’t even have a signing bonus. You just compete against a ton of people to be the lowest man on the totem pole once you start

I dunno. I have never been to that town but I know that area well. If I were looking for a position I would be applying for that one. I enjoy smaller towns close to big cities. Dont deal with the city traffic/daily hustle but can still enjoy it on day trips if wanted. Having kids and being close to a city's activities but not in it is clutch.

$50 minimum, inflation has hit hard. They must consider dinner for two, tax, gratuity.

...all staff, docs included, got a $25 Amazon gift card at Xmas from the supergroup I worked for last year, no joke.

I think I'm going to give my staff each $1k and my biller $500 this year. I'm debating whether to make that pre or post tax for them, though. 🤔

I just give each staff an extra pay check for Christmas bonus on a non-payroll week. So either the week of Christmas or the week before. It's easier and straight forward for me and I think it's fair to everyone.

That's a good thought, but I would rather give them the same amount (for bonus/gifts).

“Busy from Day 1” but too risky to salary you more than $120k…makes sense.

Seeing over 120 pts per week I would want to be on a percentage pay basis instead of salary - 120 a week on 35 - 40% will be around the 200k mark maybe more
