Hi,
I'm considering possibly doing a neuro residency once I complete my DPT. This is just a thought for now, and I am still in the 2nd year of my program so I have more time to think about it, but I just wanted to hear from some people who have completed residencies or who have considered it.
Here are a few questions I have:
- Does residency make you more marketable and makes it easier for you to get a job following graduation? Does it impact your starting salary?
- Would you recommend doing it straight after school or waiting a little bit?
- Will the knowledge you gain by doing a residency equivalent to the one you would get if you went straight into clinical practice or is the learning that occur in residency invaluable?
- if you feel comfortable sharing your salary, how much did you make as a resident? I can't find any salary information online
- If you've considered a residency and ended up deciding against it, what made you change your mind?
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to answer!
