Resolve

Achieving financial independence doesn't have to mean a physician retires early, but it does provide options and leverage. When you can afford to take on less work or even walk away from a job that doesn't suit your lifestyle, you gain powerful leverage for negotiating employment terms. To accelerate your path to financial independence, it's extremely beneficial to negotiate and maximize your compensation at the beginning of your career.

Would you rather have a higher salary or more time off? ⬇️ Drop your answer in the comments. This is one of the biggest trade-offs we see in physician contracts. Some employers offer higher base pay but minimal vacation or heavy call schedules. Others offer more PTO or flexible hours, but the salary lags behind market data. Neither option is “wrong”; it comes down to your priorities, your stage of life, and your long-term goals. What matters most is that you know what you’re trading off before you sign. That’s why contract review is so critical. Resolve helps you understand the fine print, compare compensation data, and negotiate for the balance that matters to you. 👉 Salary or time — both are negotiable.

If partnership is an option for your next job, it’s best to have the details ironed out in your employment contract. Ideally, a contract should specifically outline the path to partnership, including timeframes and a buy-in formula. You don’t want to get years into a job only to discover that you won’t become a partner as soon as expected or the buy-in amount is too high.
