Smaller chain pays better but u have to hit the ground running which after 5 years as a hospital mo, u can't one. Your experience as locum can only prepare u so much. Locum no responsibility , as long as patient dun die or complain to
SMC , u ok. in gp land with Ur own clinic , u anyhow patient really dun come back one and you swat flies lo. Very soon u close or pple show u the door.
Expect about 12 to 15k for the other chains, but they offer less personal development.
Dun look to gp as the way out la. Now not good time to be gp. You go see
SMC report, the additional of private gp number is really small. Market v tight. Chronic disease u cannot fight polyclinic price, complicated condition patient want specialist or go polyclinic also. u left to do acute condition and then kenna squeeze by TPA, landlord and competition. New entrants very hard.
Listen to old uncle here and tong in hospital, somehow get into a training, anything. You finish any LJ specilaissation even occupation med or psy u will be miles ahead of the hired gp. If cannot, look for , hospital clinician job , community hospital rp job slowly work up. Can do data analytics, health informatics stuff etc. The essence is to look for 8 to 5 job and no calls. If need to round early or do overnight call ask them go fly kite.
Most rp starts about 8k, add on a post grad 1k more and annually u nearly 120 to 130k Liao. Same salary, more time on your hands , 10am drink cofeee , no evening work and recession free. Annual leave 26 days, Christmas and cny additional half day. Can attend conference , claim ptf. Medical insurance cme practicing certificate employer settle for u. Private gp all this u settle Ur self priming
