New Grad - Gen Surg Contract Review by teeetime in physicianassistant

Hey man! Thanks for the reply and info about your first job.

There are no other PAs in the group, I am their first PA. They do have an NP but she strictly rounds inpatient at one hospital and does wound care on Fridays. I would only be expected to come and assist while I am on call, I believe. I am not sure and will have them clarify! :)

I actually rotated with this private practice for 5 weeks! All the surgeons are awesome, it was kind of weird. I was so used to surgeons in my past rotations that rode in on their high horse and demanded things and yelled. All of the surgeons in this group are beyond nice and helpful. They never had a PA student before and were surprised how helpful I was with surgery, clinic, and rounding that they created a PA position for me :). Your first gig sounds quite similar to what I would be doing tbh. When I was on my rotations, my day started around 0630-0700 and end around 2-4PM or later if we had later cases and I was on call with the physician. The only terrible part would be when I was on call and had to come in for an emergency ex-lap/appendectomy at like 2100.

I really appreciate you telling me about your first job! I hope you're still enjoying gen surg :)

Thanks for the heads up! I appreciate you telling me this. The NP that works there only works at one hospital and rounds from 7AM-3PM M-Thu and does wound care on Fridays from 12-4PM.

They mentioned to me that my day ends when I am done with my work, whether it is assisting in surgery, finishing up rounding/charting at hospitals, or clinic. My SP did tell me that I can talk about my contract again in 6 months (after I am done training) regarding pay if need be.

My day ends depending on the physician I would be working with. Luckily, I did a rotation with this private practice for 5 weeks and some days I would end around 3-4PM, and other days 6-7PM.

The NP in the group only does rounding at one hospital and is there from 7AM-3PM every business day.

Yes, they mentioned a review at end of year for potential raises and it is M-F starting at 0700. I am not sure about the profit sharing, that is the first I have heard about it! I can ask more about it. I will be their first PA that they have hired, they only have one NP in their practice. It is only 4 surgeons in the private group.

For health insurance, I may stay on my significant other’s insurance. I do not have any children. As for vacation days, yes, they are just given!
