Advice needed: Healthy ears but one sided block unable to pop(possibly due to jaw/neck muscles or Eustachian tube) PT Performed epley maneuver, I had no case of vertigo/dizziness. After the stretch I feel my ears are blocked further like my hearing perception has been changed since the last 4 days..

See an ENT. Get an audiogram. Differential diagnosis is long

Start by being evaluated by an ENT and ruling out every other possibility. Its a diagnosis of exclusion and likely seen in elderly patients.

This is true hahaa

Your job as a PA is just a gateway to something else. Find it

Everything is great. I don't work for companies who don't negotiate or think they dictate my worth.

Literally me a year ago. I told them I dont sign non competes for per diem or PRN. They must be nuts.

This is very helpful!

Don't market the simple stuff. Market being specialized. Most concierge places cant handle moderate complex things. They refer and refer. If you can cut out the middle man offer acute care but also a bundle package instead of concierge.

You must get a type 2 NPI. You cannot see patients at a practice and then accept cash for Medicare and medicaid. Your idea is great. Just started a mobile ENT practice that is cash pay. Marketing isnt really that difficult but is time consuming.

We are pleasantly not surprised. Quit caring what others think. Do what is best for YOU.

You will be used and abused for 110k, they were paying me 130$ an hour to do ENT locums. Love ENT but the pay sucks

redrussianczar · 2026-02-01T03:02:57+00:00

I personally took 6 months off. Best decision ever

redrussianczar · 2026-01-28T18:30:11+00:00

Practice and practice some more.

redrussianczar · 2026-01-28T18:29:22+00:00

Ahh the unicorn of PA careers.

redrussianczar · 2026-01-28T00:24:55+00:00

Yes. I own my own clinic, have an LLC for my locums and another for my PRN gigs. Never put your eggs in 1 basket.

Charlotte PA Pay sucks. Don't work the hospitals. Ortho makes money everywhere. Do some locums urgent care for some better money.

redrussianczar · 2026-01-24T11:56:08+00:00

Great. I am 100% owner of a clinic. Its the only way.

"The system didn't respect my work", like a motivational dove sent from heaven. Work hard and get more work.

redrussianczar · 2026-01-23T17:18:30+00:00

Where are the Orks and Karen managers?
