Genuinely. Not "hands-off" in the way that means he will be in your operatory on Tuesday telling you how he has always done it. He wants you to take the reins, run it your way, and have it be whatever you want it to be.Professional and personal mentorship and support is readily available in whatever capacity and dose or absent in whatever dose you do not want.The staff is the other thing worth saying plainly. They are experienced, trained in anesthesia and safety protocols, and set up to run either high volume or a measured pace depending on what you want. They are also motivated to produce more, and they have built the kind of office culture where people stay for years and the atmosphere is warm, family-oriented, and actually enjoyable. You will spend more waking hours with these people than with almost anyone else. It matters that they are good.ROBUST COLLECTIONSThe referral base is decades deep, and it transfers to you completely.

No proving yourself to referring dentists for three years before the schedule fills.Easily work 4 days a week, and take a 3-day weekend to Jemez to visit Waterfalls, or Taos to go Skiing.No hospital call.

If you do want OR access and inpatient capability, Presbyterian Hospital privileges are straightforward to obtain, and there is a rotating group of younger surgeons there who genuinely collaborate and back each other up. Entirely your choice.Albuquerque as a cityHere is the thing nobody tells you about New Mexico until you live here.The mountains are right there. Not a two-hour drive. The Sandias rise off the east edge of the city, and you can be at a trailhead twenty minutes after your last case. World-class mountain biking, climbing, hiking, and a ski area inside forty minutes. Beyond that: hot springs, slot canyons, waterfalls, and wilderness that most of the country has never heard of and that locals are quietly glad stays that way.Your money goes dramatically further. This is a metro of a million people with a cost of living well below the national average. A surgeon's income here buys a house, a life, and a margin that the same income does not buy in Denver, Phoenix, Austin, Chicago, or anywhere on any coast. If you are carrying student debt, that gap is the big difference between paying it off in five years and paying it off in fifteen. You can easily come here, make money and live comfortably without stressing.It is a genuinely great place to raise children. Strong private schools with excellent placement into top-tier universities. Short commutes to get around town. Whole Foods, Trader Joes and plenty of weekly farmers markets. 310 days of sunshine a year, 4 true seasons, with sunsets that put you in awe.And it is fun. The brewery and winery scene is absurd for a city this size! You have weekly live music, cultural events, of course the annual Balloon Fiesta with an experience you'll want to be a part of. The food and green and red chilli puts the pep in your step.Sunport Airport. The Sunport runs nonstop service nationwide and sits a short flight from Austin, Chicago, Portland, Seattle, Denver, Phoenix, Dallas, Vegas, and the entire West Coast. Weekend trips are genuinely easy, which matters more than people expect.
