The one thing that i love so much about my gp life is the patients , being able to follow up and get to know them and their families is wonderful. They are very appreciative, my CA always ends up with boxes if cookies or cakes. Appreciation is the key actually not the gift
In public no one appreciates u . I was from poly and it was “ dr when my turn, why other ppl call 9xxx my turn not here yet ah ?”
I am in my30s, i can make extra 1 k pm by doing 2 locum shifts per month . It is actually legal in private , i can probably retire very comfoetably by age 40s
This is my breakdown :
Salary - 13k
Aws-1m
Pb-1.5 m
Profit share- 500-100/month
Locum-1k per month, sometimes 2k but lets use 1k
Total : 214 k using lower profit of 500 and lower locum of 1k per month
I work mornings , 1 night and 0.5 saturday , my afternoons are free , clinic closes at 2 p

You are describing your work week?
Each week you do 1 night and the Sat morning?
Or is it in 1 month you do 1 night and a Sat am?
I would think this is weekly.
So in a week you work 8am-2pm mon to fri = 30h
1 night 6 to 10pm = 4h
1 Sat 8 to 11am = 3h
Total 37h a week
4 weeks = 148h
13k a month gives you hourly rate of $87.84/hr base
That's without bonus and profit share.
In addition you also work Sun mornings locum
Ie you are working 7 days a week most weeks!
Assuming that is also 8 to 11am 3 hours.
You work 40h a week most weeks.
13k a month x 12 = 156k
You get bonus 2.5m = 32,500
Profit share lets say 1k a month = 12k
Your locum extra lets say 2k a monh = 24k
Remember this is working all year round no off no holidays
Total $224,500
Total hours worked is 40 x 52 = 2080h
Hourly rate $107.93/hr.
I will congratulate you for doing well among some of your GP peers.
