[QUOTE="bball, post: 1506945, member: 23752"] Completely agree. The specialties tend to do well. Family practice is a tough row to hoe in today's climate. All about volume to make it work....and partnering with a group to share expenses on office space, employees, etc. Many ER physicians and Hospitalists are also partnering with groups and contracting their services. Seem to do better that way, but still carry significant malpractice insurance. On the contracting side,(well acquainted because we contract in our ER) the pay is directly proportionate to the shifts worked. One of our physicians works 25 days out of a 30 day month, 12 hour shifts. She resides out of state in an extremely expensive major city, has a yacht and a 20 room mansion. Our absolute best physician works 12 out of 30 and when conversing with him, he explained he doesn't live above his income and values his free time more than an extravagant lifestyle. Both ends of the spectrum. I have noticed that many physicians are heavily invested in the stock market and follow it closely... Bright Raven, it is quite possible he was telling you the truth. I suspect you made a good income as a ranking govt employee. [/QUOTE]
