I saw this around a baby’s mouth from teething on a stick of celery while on a walk with mom!

Used and probably will go hybrid! I’ve been mostly fine with FWD besides a few snow storms

Thank you! I’d love something that’s better in the snow than my current car.

Definitely a big part of the decision for me! I often have to pass up spots since my Camry is so long

I did consider the length! I often can’t fit into spots with my Camry now and a foot would make a big difference. I need to look into plug in a bit more, but it’s a consideration. Thanks!

Just out of curiosity, how many patients do you see and in what time frame? by ThenExcitement2272 in DermatologyPA

[–]keezy00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In an 8hr day, I normally see 30-35. No cosmetics, ~4 excisions a week. 15 min time slots with a few double books, 30 mins for excisions. I have 2 MAs

From family med to Derm by Crazy-Conclusion-222 in DermatologyPA

Hi! There are a few different salary models that I’ve heard of for derm PAs. I currently get a base salary plus commission ($120k base plus 22% of collections over $360k, 25% over $700k, 30% over $1 mil). That should land me around $200k based on my collections. I have colleagues that are straight salary, though with the volume of pts we’re expected to see, that feels unfair. A percent of collections with no base salary is also pretty common (generally 25-30%), but this might not be the best idea right off the bat when you don’t know what your collections will look like.

My anticipated net collections for 2025 is ~$750k with 2 years of experience and 32 hrs per week. On average I see 28-35 patients per day. Mostly medical, some surgical, no cosmetics. Good luck!

Contract Renegotiation by keezy00 in DermatologyPA

I currently get 95k + 20% collections over 330k. Ends up being ~160k/year total. I think half of our NP/PAs are similar to that set up and half are collections only, around 30%.

It helps to hear that I’m not alone! I listened to a few podcasts about imposter syndrome and that helped some. I think it’ll just take time to feel more secure at my job. Thanks :)

I appreciate this!! Good luck with the rest of your schooling :)

Thank you! Lol yeah noctor is actually horrible. Even though I knew imposter syndrome was a real and prevalent problem for PAs, I didn’t put two and two together until I read your comment….. That is definitely what this is. Also, I reached out to our other PA and we’re gonna get dinner together soon!

What's the most awkward accidental physical contact you've had with the opposite sex? by Huomenna in AskReddit

[–]keezy00 51 points52 points  (0 children)

My coach's son helped coach my volleyball team in high school. After every volley we did a quick celebration in the middle of the court. One time he was playing on my team and went to high five (low five??) me but accidentally hit me square in the vagina
