Anyone have thoughts on these elective spine only jobs? Often tied in with like an ortho or combined ortho/neuro spine group. Especially as a first job out (if really all you want to do is elective spine).
It could be a great fit for me but I’m worried if 1) it will impact board certification cases (will they actually board you in neurosurgery if you didn’t do a single crani for the oral boards) and 2) if you pinch yourself down to that alone for the first couple years would that limit me to those types of jobs and not general neurosurgery community jobs in the future should I need to relocate or something?
