More about Surgical Associates, SC

On pay, our one posting lists $32 an hour with the same floor and ceiling—no separate travel stipend or housing figure beside it. Wausau itself runs roughly 7% below the national cost of living. You can look at older downtown and riverfront blocks if you want something walkable, or quieter lower-density neighborhoods farther out if you want more space. Wisconsin uses a graduated state income tax and is not a compact-license state, so you will need a Wisconsin license before you start. Detail on ratios, scheduling, residency, and tuition help is not in the facts we have. If $32 an hour in a lower-cost city with Epic charting matches what you need, this is a straightforward place to put an application.
