Gray-bow? Has anyone ever seen a gray rainbow before?

@jointdocShields @orthotalkpod What I was told:
1 Location
2 $
3 Practice type (academic, private, hospital)
4 partners

A really good job has 3/4 of the things you want

2/4 is acceptable

Anything less, keep looking

4/4 is a unicorn.

And now I make every argument @Jabaluck made about physicians making too much and adding to healthcare costs, only with professors adding to higher education costs (THREAD)

[Ben Petre, MD @Ortho_doc]

@Jabaluck This is a dumb comparison. Lawyers don’t have to do residencies. My lawyer friends started making money 3yrs after undergrad. Took me 10. Lawyers are not in house call for 24+hrs. Lawyers can’t kill/Maime someone if they screw up

@OrthoFolks I was told I couldn’t get into Med school

I did.

I was told I was not good enough for ortho

Got my #1 choice in match (1 of the top programs nationally)

Then I went to my top choice for fellowship.

I don’t mind people telling me I can’t b/c I thrive on proving them wrong.
