Real Experiences from Private Practice Oral And Maxillofacial Surgery Physicians

“3.5 day work week, limited call, great work life balance. Complete control of my schedule”
Iowa3 years30 hrs/wk$1400k
“Second year owning my own practice. Fantastic work life balance. 8:30am to 4pm clinic hours with half days on Fridays. I work less than 40 hours a week. I take facial trauma call every other week (a few calls a week, maybe once every two months have to go into the hospital for a facial trauma case). Have an external billing contractor and external fractional CFO that takes a lot of the administrative burden on simplifying the day to day for me and my staff. ”
