So which is it?

Either TVH has a highly competitive pay and incentive package similar to other offers in Florida...

Or

There is no way it can compete with the package being offered elsewhere in addition to the disadvantages of this being isolated and old people.
Remember I posted competitive for THIS AREA. And that was 10 years ago. Remember I posted TIMES CHANGE. So yes, it WAS competitive at the time, and it is still not poverty level. However, other areas can afford to make better offers. So, if you were still practicing, late 30's and had 3 kids ages 3-10, which offer would you take-----TVH in a community of 90% Medicare and very little geared toward kids and families for say 300K, or Tampa/Clearwater with young people, families, proximity to the gulf, and a better private payer mix for closer to 500K?????

PS: Did you get that postcard as well? Many of these offers are truly astronomical.
