I would like some help from my american collegues. As an academic medical oncologists at the assistant professor level in the states, as the director of a subspecialized program, what can I expect to make? I am interviewing for an academic position and expecting a pay cut but am frustrated because nobody will let me know after several first interviews how much I will be making. Obviously this factors heavily in my decision but can not really ask. I suppose there is some average? There is some chemotherapy billing and over head and expenses in the states? But have no idea what to negotiate for and what is reasonable. please help.

Well, American colleagues might be able to help you better, but to add my two-cents : State-funded/owned Universities (I believe in all states or could be most states) are required to publicly publish salaries of employees and designations making more than $100,000 a year in wages - so a place to look for would the the previous years list - either on the university website or local newspaper archives.

I had previously put up a link to sample 2007 academic university salaries in Missouri - which shows a range of $150,000 at associate prof. level to $200,000 / $250,000 at professor level - but then again, the pay mechanism could be performance-based pay , i.e. moderate base-pay plus additional amounts dependent on the amount of goals met.

so if not the actual figure, you could still ask the compensation mechanism during initial interviews to get some more idea.

I have a 400K/year job, 7 weeks holiday, unlimited conference leave in Canada but will leave if I can not do my research due to lack of resources. People in the states in academic medicine still think that they pay much higher than their counterparts up north. I think the USA is very different. There is no salary guarantee and if you do not get grants, after a few years, you lose your job. The salary for a specialist in academics in USA is cut down to 1/3 of my salary, a higher workload, 1/2 the vacation pay and non-guarranteed income stability, it makes it a difficult choice. I do not think there is any longer the discrepancy or brain drain that used to exist. If it weren't for the strenuous licensing and examinations, I would be surprised that US physicians would not move to canada. I just wonder in academic institutions if vacation, pay and protected time is negotiable or set in stone...and standard for everyone in US.

in new york city area, in talking to my friends at most academic hematology-oncology programs, the starting assistant professor salaries is 170-180k. the range though is 140-220.

What is the feasibility that a specialist earn both an academic salary (say as a A/Professor) and a clinical salary as a practising specialist?

wat wil be the salary post hemat/onco fellowship immediately???

 

Blogger Digitaldoc, MD said ... (7/13/2009) : 

Should be anywhere from $250,000 to $300,000 depending on location, type of practice and patient flow.

Arjun, for private practice your starting salary will probably be 220,000 to 300,000, depending on where you are looking

Academic jobs pay around 150,000 to 250,000 probably, but with little potential for increase

Private practice is still very lucrative in comparison

Unfortunately Heme/Onc has taken a massive cut the last few years due to Medicare, it used to be very lucrative, with many established docs make over $1 million/year

Some groups which relied heavily on chemo revenue are even going bankrupt...

Several Heme/Onc docs in practice are still easily making 500,000 to 700,000 this year, but that could continue to decline with all the rumored changes from Washington....

Can you do Hematology/Oncology fellowship after pediatrics residency? How straightforward is that?

 

Blogger Digitaldoc, MD said ... (10/07/2009) : 

yes Academic centers have low pays and a tiered system to increasing pay through years. At a university affiliated hospital, you could have better pays and yet have the academic satisfaction of teaching med-students and residents, but may not have protected research time

Pediatric Hematology-Oncololgy: This is a three year fellowship that can be done directly after completing a 3-year residency in pediatrics. Here's an example.

Hi,
Is it very difficult to get hem/onc fellowship? What kind of research helps most? Does it have to be in Cancer Letters or sth smaller is OK too?

thx
