The Financial Reality

Perhaps most importantly, your compensation goes further in Dallas–Fort Worth than in most major U.S. markets. Texas has no state income tax, immediately increasing your take-home pay by 5–13% compared to states like California or New York. Housing costs are 30–50% lower than coastal cities, while quality schools, dining, & recreation come without the inflated pricing of other metros.

The result is a compensation package that provides genuine financial freedom—the ability to own a beautiful home, save for retirement, fund your children’s education, & enjoy life without constant financial stress. You’ll join colleagues who chose Stella Mattina not only for its clinical excellence, but also for its financial sanity: the freedom to make career choices based on purpose rather than pressure.
