I’m a fourth year resident looking at jobs, wondering how hard is it to get a part time outpatient job (gen neuro) right off the bat? Anywhere from 0.5-0.8 FTE is ideal.
Also, please don’t try to convince me that I should be working full time, I will take less pay for more of my life back lol
Does any one here work part time? How hard is it to find part time general neurology roles out of residency?
Regretting choosing neurology, I liked my prelim year and now thinking back realize the IM hospitalist route would have been a much better fit. I dislike being a consult service, and feel like we deal with too much that’s non neurologic. Honestly, I don’t want to go back and do a different residency and don’t think fellowship is the right route given my dislike for the field. Have any neurologists here successfully switched to a different field, one that isn’t medically related? What was your path? Do you do that full time or part time?
I’m a neurology resident that is interested in clinical informatics. Unfortunately I think it is too late for me to apply to the fellowship and start after residency, but looking for advice on how to get into this/ if this could be a viable hybrid career. What projects could I get into while finishing residency? Is fellowship necessary (for example if I wanted to work in informatics 0.5 FTE? What if later on I wanted majority like 0.8 FTE informatics?) I was thinking of possibly getting a job at the VA eventually, do you know if it would be possible to pursue informatics there? instead of fellowship, would working part time for a year or two and doing a masters make any sense?
