Hi!
I have some questions regarding NHSC scholarships and the salaries one should expect following residency.
I am very open to the idea of pursuing a career in Internal medicine. I wanted to see if anyone could give me an idea of the types of salaries one should expect following residency. According the medscape (2014), the average IM salary was around $190k. How do the NHSC sites salary's generally compare to the national average? I'd expect them to be slightly lower for the most part, but how much lower?
Another scenario: if I find during my rotations that I am interested in a subspecialty such as cardiology, would I be able to pursue a fellowship following the fulfillment of my 4-year contract?
I had another question but have forgotten what it was (haha), I'll be sure to remember it soon and either edit or post it somewhere in a response. Thanks in advance for any input!
