mid six figures. it's a small town in rural appalachia - pixitude Apr 2, 18:40 14
- mid-5 figures?! geez that is super cheap for a dentist. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Apr 2, 19:11 1
  - the average price for a house is probably about the same ($50k ish) -- nm - pixitude Apr 2, 19:28
- is it one of those deals where he gets loan forgiveness? My brother got some of his med school loans forgiven for working in Kentucky. -- nm - loosilu Apr 2, 18:49 2
  - apparently but he didn't apply for it properly this year, hence the full payment amount - pixitude Apr 2, 18:50 1
    - that was dumb. I'm sure there's some sort of incentive program. there's a severe problem with dental care in that area. -- nm - loosilu Apr 2, 18:52
- Mid five figures per month for salary seems really high for right out of college -- nm - MDH Apr 2, 18:45 5
  - it's a weird formula that depends on collections from health care providers for the patients he's able to see during his hours at the chair - pixitude Apr 2, 18:49 3
    - dentists are desperately needed in appalachia. what kind of clinic is he working in? -- nm - loosilu Apr 2, 18:51 2
      - it's my dad's private practice, not a clinic -- nm - pixitude Apr 2, 18:55 1
        
        ah, ok. -- nm - loosilu Apr 2, 19:02
  - dental school, not college. -- nm - loosilu Apr 2, 18:49
- reminds me of a mortgage -- nm - peglegpete Apr 2, 18:41 1
