Lolz.
Arguing over those 1 to 2k.
About there la.
Gen med ac base can be low in some cluster
As low as 10.x in some hospital but that was few years back.
Derm AC base quite high at 12.x becuase they see a lot of outpatient
Surgical department usually quite rich and pay their AC better
Generally AC all in is 12.x to 14 or 15.x if porcedure based
Annual 180 to 230/240

But some advice here is good
Become specialist is better than GP if u can tank residency.
Wouldn't say FM is bad. I was a neuro reg before I drop out
because of my kids and later on my health reasons
Rested 2 years then gdfm at ops and then m.med.
I don't have a lot of stress with my regular work hours and I'm paid decently.
Patients dont die on me like in r calls.
Don't need to have long family conference etc
