Doing primarily outpatient and helping build out a clinic for a hospital. Just essentially getting started but wanting to get busy fast. Was curious if anyone has any suggestions on types of patients I could expand to seeing. There are already 2 interventionalists and also a FM sports medicine so not sure much room for spine procedures which is fine. Currently a fair bit of inpatient follow ups, chemodenervation/spasticity management/baclofen pumps, and some pain management (not wanting to do much opiate management). I'm expecting/hoping there is spill over of msk patients. Don't currently do EMGs but open to it...would need a refresher. Wanting to do an amputee and wheelchair clinic. Iffy on concussions but also open to it. Have the option to do consults at the hospital which I could theoretically do in the mornings before clinic or split my day half clinic/half consults but currently working 4 days a week (not wanting to change my schedule) and not sure if doing so would set some sort of precedent and expectation of consults every day or at least 5 days a week. 2 other pmr docs split a small in hospital unit and they have essentially haven't been doing consults as of now so not really anything formally established. Anything else I might be missing out? Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
