Well, like I said many times before. I probably made less than the median MGMA while I was out.
Didn’t have the contacts to land the best paying PP gig; did not I want to supervise 3-4:1 all the time nor bust my ass at a 60+ hr a week job. I worked hard (50-60hrs) in Vegas for two years doing mostly BS spine cases when I really preferred brain and realized it wasn’t worth it for me. Dealing with some of the crazy, money hungry neurosurgeons was giving me back pain and head pain.
So for me, it’s a job that’s gonna pay me >425K W2 with residents to help with paperwork.
sounds like you were seriously getting underpaid.. especially if you were doing spine cases
