they only make bank if they are specialized like plastic surgeon or dermatolgist.
A regular family dr makes less than 120 grand yr.
Well up here anyways

My homeopath (well ex homeopath) makes over 300 grand a yr, but she also owns a school. Her private practive alone brings her more than 150 grand a yr.
She charges $175 an hr
An ND (naturopath) makes about the same

The key word is specialized. You can make bank is almost any specialty cept pediatrics and geriatrics.

It's about 150 down here......And that's why there's a mass exodus from primary care. I plan to do locum tenens after residency and make a little over 3 times that to pay off my loans. Then settle back a bit for less pay and better QOL. But it isnt about the money. Never has been and never should be......

I agree, if one is becoming a doc to make money, then they are not going to be all that great of a doc.

I didn't know you were in med school. right on! My friend gets her PHD in 2 weeks but she's into research. Lots of schooling.

Yep yep. And when I get older, I think it would be cool to set up an antiaging clinic. Who know's what kind of things we will be able to do by then!
