Almost 7 months post Trochlear Groove MACI (left knee) and Back Squats

Just posting some motivation for others out here and there 🤙🏽🔥🦾

(Texas - Private Practice) DERMATOLOGY NP… Non-Compete clause

Derm NP going on 6 years.

Anyways, I had signed a non-compete contract, sum 3 or 4 years ago, which goes with the verbiage of “3 years restriction after termination, and 30 mile radius”.
My dumba$$ signed that contract cuz I really wanted to get into Derm.

I actually enjoy my current job. Love the hours. The pay could be better. Some of the patient flow could be better. Don’t like some things about the schedule.
Little things here and there, but overall I enjoy my job.

Anyway, another local Derm doc came up to me and wants to potentially hire me.
Will meet with him for a second time soon, and he will shoot me a formal $$$ offer and contract. I told him what I’m currently making, and gave him numbers I’d like to see. I’m under the assumption he will offer a lot more than what I’m making now.
If not, I’ll axe this offer and keep it pushing.

If this is going to be a huge salary increase for me, I feel like I’d be dumb to say no.
How can I go about my current non-compete with my current employer if I decide to accept the new Derm offer at the other Derm clinic? Assuming it’s really good.

As I see it, all I can do is be as honest and professional and request for them to match the new salary offer from the other Derm job. If they match it, cool. Great.
If they cannot, can I kindly request they disregard the non-compete and allow me to formally put my 90 day notice in and go to the other Derm job?

What are the chances they don’t let go of the non-compete?
I can still put my 90 day notice right?
And they’ll probably take me to court for the non-compete stuff right?
I’d definitely need an employment lawyer then.

I’d love to hear from different lenses and help me see this thru.

Thanks all. Much love!!🫶

Just another progress post! Hoping it’ll give some motivation for others.

Had my left knee trochlear groove MACI 5.5 months ago, and I can comfortably do some body squats now.
Some leg presses as well. PT has been going well.
Yall see my bands there on the floor, as in also incorporating a lot of band work into my routine.

Still have some difficulty with (minimal) pain at the lesion site during certain movements. But I know this recovery is going to take a long time so that’s expected.

Overall, I’m happy. I’m continuing to build muscle back into my atrophied leg.
Hoping to get back to playing basketball in 12 months or less!

Happy Sunday, yall 🤙🏽🙏🙌
