hookem2010 Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Hey, I'm just about to finish school, and I had my first interview and subsequent offer for an orthopedic position in Houston. Benefits and expected hours are as follows... -$75,000, w/ potential production bonus at 6 months -health insurance, malpractice, etc. covered -$2,500 for CME w/ 4 days off -paid licensure and certifications -10 days of vacation Schedule -approximately 7-5 M-F -call one day/week and up to one weekend/month Does this sound reasonable, or should I consider looking elsewhere? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefPA Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Not sure what it costs to live in Houston....but it sounds too low all around 75k is way low Get the details of the bonus in writing 2 weeks vacation....ok but not great. Need to negotiate for more after a year Ortho can be lucrative.....you can potentially make 500 k or 750k for the practice in the first year Your starting salary is the most important....it doesn't go up by much later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
