Unfortunately I am tied to either northeast or south Florida due to family, but that does sound like a fantastic deal.

Well theoretically I would at least get my money back, because the company would either buy it back when I retire or they'd be acquired and have to pay me whatever the shares cost at their acquisition price (or whatever percent I've paid in at that time if there is an acquisition).

Partnership would get me some stock in the company, which I can sell back at retirement (not the most enticing prospect for something that might be 20+ years away). I wouldn't own any physical assets, they rent their spaces.

Thank you for your reply, I greatly appreciate it. This is what I continue to hear from everyone I talk to, it's just very disheartening after spending 2 years here.

Hi everyone, I’m having trouble deciding about buying in as a partner to my primary care practice. I’m torn between doing this and leaving for another job. I’m located in the NE outside of a major city. I currently make 215K working 4 days a week as an employee hours are 8-5 and I’m on call...

Hi all, I recently decided that I was going to make the jump from hospitalist to outpatient IM and signed a contract to start this summer. I just can't take the stress of being in the hospital anymore. I find it's impossible to do anything with my day when working a 12 hour shift. The...

How were you able to access the portal and view your score?

That sounds really nice. Was it advertised as a 4-day a week thing or did you negotiate that?

I am in the NE near Philly.

very true unfortunately. It's ass backwards.

Oh trust me I regret a great many things about this whole situation. 1) I try to be as efficient as possible. There is a swing that helps cover admissions. I cover 40-50 beds. I get 8-10 admits a night. 2) How do I find a job that is round and go? It's not something I see advertised a whole...

Hi everyone, I am a recent graduate from residency. I took my first real job working as a hospitalist. I stupidly chose a schedule that is half days, half nights. I was supposed to be 1 week on/1 off which I thought would be ok and I'd be able to flip my sleep schedule around. The shifts are...

That's kind of how I am viewing it. I think I should get 70-80% of the bonus, and that will put me on par for about average with a lower census and less admissions I think it could be a chill job with good benefits.

NE US, 30 minutes outside a major city

There's no cross coverage from home, it's just that they could possibly call you in to work.
