It really does vary widely, but all these numbers seem to be the low end of each field.



I agree. In the conversations I've had with ones in Private Practice, these numbers are low. Anecdotal data from a small subset isn't as strong as anecdotal data from a larger survey, though.

Those look more like starting salaries. Hell, I made over $225k as a 3rd year resident with moonlighting and a night clinic.

One thing you guys are not taking into consideration here is the contingency labor market that exists in the realm of locum tenens.

Though compensated handsomely on an hourly scale, they often experience lulls of no income and seldom work full time, 2,000 hrs per annum.

There are shitty doctors working shitty, low wage jobs in corrections, occupational health. Garbage wages for MDs, sometimes as low as $60-80/hr.

The labor force is widely dispersed.
