A Houston group is recruiting a hand surgeon into a practice described on the posting as one hundred per cent hand, with no general orthopaedics.
The numbers on this one are unusually specific, and they are the employer's own. The posting states a compensation range of $700,000 to $1,200,000, up to 20,000 wRVUs available annually, an expectation of 450 or more cases a year, and four weeks of call per year — telephone call, for hand only.
That call arrangement is the figure worth pausing on. Four weeks a year of hand-only telephone call is materially lighter than most hand posts carry, and on a practice built for this kind of volume it is the difference between a busy job and an unsustainable one. The volume expectation is high and the posting does not pretend otherwise: it is written for a surgeon who wants to operate a great deal.
