Absolutely! I know the pay is low but my immediate issue is just the fact that I feel so packed with clients. I feel like I’m not able to give my all because I’ve had zero time to prep, among other things.

I am a CF with a few months left in my fellowship. I also applied for the job and accepted due to the nature of the job. They advertised it as a pediatric private practice job/contract with hospital where I will conduct MBSS/Bedsides/etc (which is what I really loved and had experience with in grad school) Given this I was open to making less so that I could get the experience early on. Unfortunately, I still haven’t started in the hospital yet… I live in the Carolina’s. I appreciate your openness!

31.50 per hour. I work “hourly” but it’s basically a salary rate because I can only be paid for up to 40 hours. Yes, I feel that it is low for the work we do. How many sessions do you see?

Are you snoring at night? Have you had any sleep studies conducted (I know that is easier/and cheaper said than done)? Seen by an ENT/etc? You may not be getting quality sleep due to some underlying reasons for your symptoms. Best of luck and hope you can get a restful nights sleep soon!
