hboisseau Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I have 3 years of practice in Diagnostic Radiology. This position sort of fell in my lap when a Maternal-Fetal Medicine position fell through after graduation. My passion is still women's health and composes <1% of my current work. To stay connected to the field (by a thread) I teach childbirth classes for a local crisis pregnancy center. I also want to move out of state. Would love to transition specialties at the same time as moving out of state. 1) I am having a hard time connecting with employers in the area I desire to move. 2) The companies I do connect with (local or in desired area) are looking for those who already have experience in WH. There are only two post graduate programs (total of 4 annual spots) in the US. Any words of wisdom on how to proceed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality Check 2 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Find a Family Practice where you want to move and get some more experience under your belt THEN try to switch to WH only through OB/Gyn. Many employers don't want to talk to folks until they live there - don't have to entertain moving expenses that way or mess with waiting on the state license, etc. Not fair but that's how they do it. Or try Planned Parenthood............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
