that locality adjustment for doctors at the palo alto VA hospital is $70k, as high as it goes (base is $110k)

The irony of physician subsidy like this is that since California is a very highly underserved state for most specialties it makes the Bay Area and Sac the only places in Cali that have adequate numbers of physicians.

Salaries vary widely per specialty, though, and generally speaking you get more than what’s on your base salary depending on what you do and how you do it. You tend to do OK in the Bay Area when all the beans are counted. It’s a tough place to break into

unless you’re primary care which is horrible everywhere now
