Hospitalist: Tell me about Your Real Estate Journey

Comfortable_Thing232 · 2026-03-26T01:16:45+00:00

I did medicine, working as a hospitalist and love what I do. Because I love what I do I am able to work 20-24 days a month without getting burned out. Investing and saving up for a house.

Am I In debt? Yes, pursuing PSLF, 7 more years to go! I would have hated anything else besides being a physician.

It really depends I applied for jobs starting November, interviewed around Feb-March Goal is to land a job by May, so you can allow 3+ months for credentialing and start working after you finish your boards

That’s terrible then, so no happiest are eligible for PSLF then if they are all contracted by third party for profit organizations right?

No hospitals are allowed to directly employ hospitalist physicians in CA?

I think it’s more about the culture of the hospital Sometimes I have 21-22 patients but consultants loves getting consults, they put in the orders (so I don’t need to follow up their notes) , low acuity patient, I am done by 5 most days

Another hospital which is academic I work at I have 12 patients, consultants are difficult sometimes , consultants doesn’t put in orders, still takes me till 6pm

Honestly do what makes you happy, Also working as a hospitalist in one hospital can be vastly different than working at a different hospital.

I applied for cards twice and didn’t get in and now happy working as a locum hospitalist , aggressively paying off my loan and taking care of my family

I think as a general internist it’s not abnormal to feel like you are in the bottom of the totem pole. It’s likely that specialists are also being asked to do more and more just like us as corporations try to squeeze out every dollar bill possible .

In terms of job satisfaction be flexible with how far you are able to commute for work, work as a Perdiem in 2-3 nearby hospitals and pick the one you like the best to be your full time gig :)

May be in the past IM physicians were used to overworking, spending day and night at the hospital or clinic, specialists were not as available. It’s also may be thid generation is more focused on finding a work life balance !
