For those of you in pedo residencies, do you have any idea how much your faculty make? For those that are treating patients either in the general clinic, OR, or separate faculty practice, do you know if they get a % of collections?
I'm considering a part-time faculty gig while I build my practice and am just wondering what the norm is at other programs. Thanks for any info you may have.

very good and interesting question...

Base pay + % of OR, hospital based. The topic was broached and i got the feeling it was in the neighborhood of lower 100s but was never specifically told.

Remember, faculty are State employees--and if you can find a school that pays 100K, I'd be surprised. Right now, I am faculty at a school that pays us around 66-70K, specialists get that as well so it's pretty puny. Part time OK but don't expect big bucks. You might want to think of becoming a contract dentist and working in other offices as your office grows for a percentage of your production--better pay.

Not sure if you were referring to my post, but if you were the low 100s estimate was for a hospital-based program with no ties to a school. I had an attending tell me they started at 90 and that was maybe 15 years ago, so with increase of COL and inflation it's prob in the lower 1s.

Thanks for the replies. This might be the first reasonable, non-hijacked salary thread in the history of SDN.

Because it's related to faculty and nobody* wants to enter academics.

*broad and generalized statement 😀
