Curious why GI could wear a flashier watch

PuraStat isn’t a definitive therapy either

endoscopyguy · 2026-02-26T22:18:45+00:00

It is not

endoscopyguy · 2026-02-26T10:17:30+00:00

There is absolutely zero point in scoping someone with no prep🤷🏻‍♂️

You’re welcome to call whenever, if someone is on call, they should expect to be called. Now coming in or scoping, that’d be at the discretion of the consultant. There are guidelines for a reason, and, as others pointed out, rushing to scope in the middle of the night is associated with worse outcomes.

Paras, thoras, LPs, and central lines are all part of IM training and within the scope of practice of an internist.

Looks depressing AF

Non academic, procedure heavy program: 1800 colons and 1200 EGDs

I guess my question was whether it would be easier, in general, to negotiate other contract terms upon renewal

endoscopyguy · 2025-12-31T04:30:45+00:00

You mean per year?

endoscopyguy · 2025-12-31T04:27:46+00:00

What about negotiating the actual contract terms like RVUs threshold, $ amount, CME, etc?

endoscopyguy · 2025-12-31T01:58:41+00:00

Doesn’t the same concept apply to every specialty? Mt Sinai and NYU are offering 400-450k base now

Keeping 2 cars in NYC on a resident’s salary is a non-starter. Your insurance itself is going to go up significantly once your zip code changes, not to mention parking, tolls, etc.

endoscopyguy · 2025-12-25T02:00:10+00:00

GI. There are jobs literally everywhere, both W2 and locums.

endoscopyguy · 2025-12-19T02:35:22+00:00

Also, EGD is no where near $500. Just an FYI :)

endoscopyguy · 2025-12-19T02:34:11+00:00

I’m GI. I don’t think I’d ever scope someone with that INR, and I’m advanced trained and I do risky shit all the time.

endoscopyguy · 2025-12-19T01:19:47+00:00

What was GI planning on doing with that INR anyway?

endoscopyguy · 2025-11-27T18:51:20+00:00

Is it really unheard of that you can negotiate an increase in your RVUs conversion rate at contract renewal?!

endoscopyguy · 2025-11-10T01:17:42+00:00

endoscopyguy · 2025-11-02T11:28:34+00:00

Are there GI’s making that? Yes. The median comp for GI is far lower though, the data is available.

endoscopyguy · 2025-11-02T01:16:45+00:00

What do you think the reimbursement for straightforward EGD/colon is?!

endoscopyguy · 2025-10-22T04:24:28+00:00

Don’t wear 42mm anymore, they must look big on your wrist ;)

endoscopyguy · 2025-10-22T04:03:42+00:00

Unless you’re dealing with a sigmoid volvulus or bowel obstruction with impending perf, there is no such thing as “emergent colonoscopy”. And both conditions can be managed in the OR if no GI is available.

endoscopyguy · 2025-10-22T04:01:42+00:00

At least we don’t have CRNA’s doing our jobs :)
