Jeez, that pay seems a little low for a sub specialist.

That's government contracting for you. They pay the same for a CT anesthesiologist where I am now, and have an ad for a Pain anesthesiologist that (surprise) has yet to be filled. Upside is that you really don't work too hard (at ours, can't speak for Madigan, but I think it's similar), and you get all of those federal holidays off. However, you do get death by PowerPoint, just like your AD colleagues.

It's better than working at the VA :0

That pay is terrible. I'm a general anesthesiologist and make twice that. Which fool is going to take a job like this? Some unsuspecting new grad I suppose......

The civilian guys I used to work with at another navy hospital made more with no call and no OB. For Q5 call with trauma, they need to add a lot more coin.

I feel like as much as trainees and new grads complain (justifiably sometimes) about the old gaurd, the willingness of new grads to take these $hit jobs is also driving the decent of our specialty.

Is it a contract or GS job? If the later, then they can't offer more, due to the GS system being very specific.

Yeah, because that's what new grads do....they seek out the lowest paying job and jump right on it. You really figured out the problem there.

 

[IlDestriero]

GS or not, that's a really bad deal. Academic jobs start higher than that with q30 call. And no nasty adults. But you get lovely Tacoma...

The salary is $100K too low . I realize the government has salary limitations but that's VA level pay posted on here.
