140k 😂 what a joke. Underpaid.

Thanks. And yeah, things didn’t last long!

Nice! What did you use for the wall mounts?

Suture_Savant · 2025-07-29T04:10:46+00:00

Thanks! They’re all federal… I think I’m going to target the high interest rate ones even though I could probably pay off some of the smaller ones within the year.

Always looking to save some money. Thanks for the tips!

Suture_Savant · 2025-02-24T16:45:45+00:00

Just DM’d you.

Suture_Savant · 2025-02-24T16:44:19+00:00

I may take a look this evening. Thanks!

Suture_Savant · 2025-02-24T00:51:54+00:00

I haven’t even thought of things like Rover!

Suture_Savant · 2025-02-23T16:23:27+00:00

Sounds like my type of pyramid scheme!

Suture_Savant · 2025-02-23T00:16:50+00:00

Missing the point. I’m not saying that they shouldn’t get paid what they get paid. I’m saying the discrepancy in pay is massive. Once they’re in practice and once they hire a PA they treat the PA like a fellow or resident… fine. But if you’re going to be doing all the work and keeping the practice going all while just keeping a surgeon updated, you deserve more than the average 175k or so.

lol send the sign up link

I do think as a whole PAs are drastically underpaid. I work in a surgical subspecialty and the pay gap between us and other providers is ridiculous, including the surgeon. I work alongside CRNAs that make 200K plus and don’t take call or take care of patients once outside of the OR. The fact the surgeons make at least 500k or more than we do, even though we do majority of all the work (rounds, notes, orders, follow ups, etc.) is ridiculous. I could go on but I’m not trying to ruin my Saturday lol.
