I am paying my front desk person $13 an hour. I know a lot of practices pay way more around here. But she took the job with loyalty in mind that if it all worked out, she would be with me longer term. Her six months is coming up so I am going to rasie her to I think 13.50. I hope that seems reasonable to some of you. Also I gave her a $300 xmas bonus after 4 months of work with me, but she really made my life easier as my frist hire and helping me out.
I don't pay benefits at all at this point and don't know if I will but we will see.
I do sports medicine so I am hoping to hire and ATC but I know that is more expensive.
