Don't just take our word for it, hear what medicine is saying about us

Thomas B.
MD Anesthesiology
FREE? You have to be kidding me! This information has always been completely locked behind a paywall.

Kira K.
MD Hospitalist
Anonymous peers helping peers level up - I don't know if it gets better than that. Thanks to everyone who's shared and paid it forward.
Kelly B.
MD Family Medicine
When I was an employed physician straight out of fellowship, I found out I was making 65% of my peers. I wish I had Marit then, and I'm glad it's here now.

Jeremy C.

Maggie A.
NP Internal Medicine
As a woman renegotiating my base pay and not able to afford gatekeeping databases, this resource is so helpful.
Anthony B.
MD Plastic Surgery
This is an incredibly valuable resource for physicians navigating the opaque and confusing process of compensation & contract negotiations.

Andrei M.
DO Nocturnist
You can easily get lapped by your peers if you don't have the right info available - this makes it so much easier to stay informed.

Terrence P.
MD Family Medicine
FINALLY! I’ve been looking for something exactly like this!!
John B.
MD Family Medicine
Great idea and long overdue. We need to start putting our minds together and stop letting so many people get lowballed.
John C.
MD Psychiatrist
