You pay taxes on the net income, not the gross income. -

Heme/Med Onc (IM) vs. Rad Onc
The Ace of Spades replied to JivTor's topic in Primary Care Residencies
IM+subspecialization gives you more flexibility unless you really really really like the physics/tech side of Rad Onc. If you do Med Onc or Heme, you can always do some GIM work if you wanted to. I can cover CTU weeks if I want to, for example. -

Will residency be postponed?
The Ace of Spades replied to guest1993's topic in General Resident Physician Discussions
This may not be the case... according to fellows at my old program, there is talk about extending PGY5 by a month or two to make up for lost procedures. Haven't heard anything official yet so just rumors at this time. -

Not the OP or in GIM, but the billing "tithe" is definitely a thing at academic centres. The academic centre I trained in took 10-20% of all billings (even stuff you did *IN YOUR OWN PRIVATE CLINIC*) to go into the Department of Medicine pot.

Can a group of independent specialists (Y) in a city (X) start calling themselves "X Y Associates" without any beaurocratic hurdles? It's not a partnership so wouldn't need any contracts or anything like that. Just something to put on the office and letterhead etc to sound more cohesive as a group and maybe increase visibility.

How much do family doctors actually make?
The Ace of Spades replied to lowkeyMD's topic in Primary Care Residencies
Also you have less control of your life. Section head delegates you to give the med school lecture for your specialty? Department head wants annual review meetings and research productivity meetings? Easier to say no to things in private practice. -

possible to apply for fellowships
The Ace of Spades replied to lovetoread's topic in Primary Care Residencies
Most fellowship programs consider US IM training to be equivalent to Canadian IM training, so it is certainly possible to apply.- 2 replies

The Ace of Spades replied to SGSP's topic in Medical Student General Discussions
I don't want to reveal too much information, but I have a relative that is a practicing physician with Bipolar I.
