SlowlyButSurely Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Good evening, everyone! I got a job offer for internal medicine. I have a feeling it is a bad contract, but I thought I would throw it out here regardless. I'd appreciate any feedback! Please and thank you! -$52/hr -2 weeks vacation, 3 weeks vacation by year 3; 5 National Holidays -%3 raise yearly -Noncompete clause - no primary care within a 10 mile radius - NO CME; License Reimbursement; Any subscriptions; Health insurance Hours are 9 to 5:30 with a 30 minute lunch, dedicated MA, avg 18 patients per day. He wanted me to start at $48 but then upped that. I think this is not a great package. But maybe I am being too greedy? I am new grad so I am not sure when I am asking for too much. This is a small private practice and he says he does not have a huge profit margin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MediMike Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Sorry for an offer like that. Hourly isn't bad depending on your region, expected patient load for a new grad (if I remember right) is way over the top. All of the things listed as a "NO" are things that are included in any normal contract in my opinion. Small practice or not that's ridiculous. I'd recommend walking away.

SoCalPa118 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 I also agree. Walk away. This job will burn you out as a new PA. You should be seeing that many patients closer to your first year for internal or family. I think keep looking, as a new PA you have much to learn but you also deserve a good package, minimum of health insurance coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
