Happy to see upload from you again! Started watching when I was premed and you were a student. Now you’re finishing fellowship and I’m an EM PGY2! I also have two kids. Time flies for us both!

If you could share how you’d approach residency if you had to do it again, that would be incredibly helpful! Any secret tips on balancing energy, staying fit, making time for family, and becoming a competent clinician, especially now that you’re finished?

Great video man. Half way done with my mid-level and hoping to go into sports med.

In a gap year and this video gives me hope. Looking to do sports medicine one day!

Sports medicine is a great career! Keep your head up. Gap years can feel weird and very uncertain but keep pushing through and stick to your plan! I took 2 gap years so you’re definitely not alone!

Started following as a premed and about to enter PGY-1, FM gang gang 🙌 Also considering a sports fellowship as well. Are you planning on having a split style practice once you are finished? Trying to figure out exactly what I’m looking for with it if I pursue that path. Would love that additional training in US guided procedures etc.

Appreciate the support over all these years! And yeah I will be doing essentially half sports half FM! Not entirely sure on the exact breakdown on days yet but it will be split. The procedures are awesome to add in to your regular clinic

@@doctor_ej Really resonate with your channel coming from collegiate athletics myself (wrestled division 1) and found my way to medical school around the time I found your channel before the pandemic. That practice set up sounds like goals right there! Were you able to negotiate with the practice you are joining or are you looking to open a practice?

@doctor_ej 7 ай бұрын

@do.on2wheels38 that’s awesome man! It’s not easy going to college athlete route so great job there! Yeah there was some small negotiations. Opening a practice is definitely on the table, but working for a group to start out and see how it goes

@@doctor_ej Thats great man! Congrats on the fellowship year and upcoming attending job, that’s great you were able to negotiate like you did. A couple of my mentors either did exactly that, opened their own split practice similar to a DPC model, or were brought on into an ortho practice to handle the non-operative side. So many different paths to take which is awesome

Do you think compensation for a sports med physician is on the higher end of the national average? Or does it depend on which type of practice you go into?

@doctor_ej 4 ай бұрын

Hey! National average of what? All other specialties? If you’re comparing to all other specialties, then I would say on average, no. Most sport med docs probably make just above what primary care docs make (FM/peds/IM). Sports med physician income is HIGHLY dependent on the type of practice you join however. I know some sports med docs who make as much as their operative counterparts. The ceiling is much higher, but takes a unique opportunity or a lot of work to get there

@NewYorkGirl-pd6mn 3 ай бұрын

@@doctor_ej yes I meant compared to national average of IM or FM PCP. That is what I read as well depending on whether or not you join an ortho group. That is helpful thank you! Do you mind me asking if you are doing sports medicine as part of your primary care practice or did you join an ortho group?

I noticed you mentioned Family Medicine residency. Is that a requirement to enter into Sports Medicine fellowship? And how does that differ from Sports Medicine residency?

@doctor_ej 8 ай бұрын

Some fellowships may require it, but not all. Other routes for nonop SM are EM, IM, Peds, and PM&R
