We have people who job share. 5 people doing 4fte’s. 3 of them still take call. 2 of them give all their calls away. When our schedule comes out for the following month, they send out a group text or email and the call shifts are taken within minutes. But it’s true all these people took call and worked full time at one time. You could not get this position walking off the street. You’d need to build “connections” with like minded people who want a similar arrangement. That’s the beauty of running one’s own practice, you can get creative and do whatever you want.
True, true, true. Nothing wrong with that. I was just never that lucky to find that “group.” But at the time I was also married and had to accommodate someone else. Had that not been the case, things would have been different.
 
This is a no brainer. Do GI, if you can get in.
Future of GI? Shameful they call these “fellowships”. These programs will continue sprouting like weeds and the suits will be happy to embrace.


The program was created for recent nurse practitioner graduates who are planning a career in the specialty of gastroenterology and hepatology and for practicing nurse practitioners who wish to redirect their careers toward gastroenterology and hepatology. The fellowship program is administered by the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine located in Baltimore, Maryland.

Rotations may include:
  • Inpatient gastroenterology service (2-4 months)
  • Inpatient liver service (2-4 months)
  • Outpatient gastroenterology and hepatology clinics (6–8 months)
  • Endoscopy procedural exposure

Disgusting. Midlevels are coming for everyone. Whats your point - OP asked GI or anesthesia - are you suggesting anesthesia is a better choice than GI from an encroachment standpoint?

GI probably still better as of today. Maybe another 15 years and it is full blown accepted that midlevels do majority of scopes. In the meantime you make your several million in GI and then peace out
