You probably get a few letters a week promising
great opportunities if you are willing to
work somewhere else. If those letters caught
your eye but you are not ready to contact
them yet, we can help.
Seeking New Opportunities
Doctors are in demand, although you
may not
recognize it just by looking at declining
reimbursements or at the soaring costs
of
doing business. Demand for doctors
is driven
by changing or expanding missions of
hospitals
and practices, shifting populations,
and
ongoing demand from relatively underserved
areas.
But change is a big step. If you have
your
own patients now, a move of more than
a few
miles might cost you your patient base.
A
new city might entail a new lifestyle,
different
from the one to which you are now accustomed
-- indeed, it probably means breaking
your
current routine and establishing a
whole
new one. Plus, there is the stress
of learning
new procedures, getting accepted on
staff
at new hospitals, and much more.
A number of placement firms help bridge
the
need for doctors and the reluctance
of many
to change. Often times, there is a
very significant
monetary incentive in the form of guaranteed
minimums or bonuses for making the
change.
Use the Web to Anonymously Learn More
So, we encourage you to take advantage of
the online resources of recruiters and placement
services to answer the three important questions:
do you want a change, do you need a change,
and are you ready for a change? Peruse their
websites to learn more about how they can
help you find and transition into a new job.
By doing so, you may decide that you're happy
where you are. Or, you may decide that the
time for change has come.
