I am deliberating between medicine(cards) and anesthesiology, particularly pediatric anes. It's a tough choice.......
A couple of questions for anyone involved in peds/thinking about the fellowship.
-1- Do CRNAs routinely do peds cases? Or are they primarily the domain of MDAs?
-2- Is there a lot of continuity of care? That is one aspect of medicine that I really enjoy.
-3- From a financial point of view, it appears that it is a sound judgement...looking at gaswork, there are quite a few opps for peds-trained MDAs....what does the market look like for people applying now? I don't care where I practice....I would prefer small town, midwest over the city. Salaries? On gas work the texas jobs had salaries ~300-400k. Does that sound about right?
thanks.
