If its taking all doctors and averaging there are three things. Most doctors live in cities so more expensive areas. Specialists make more than general practitioners. There are many doctors who put in tons of hours (for example surgeons usually have set days or times they do surgeries and set times and hours to do office visits and then need to check in on patients post surgery. Usually my surgeons have done rounds of patients at least once during the weekend and that is with a pretty full weekday schedule). I think this amount seems about right. Should a doctor with all that schooling and having the talent necessary to even get in make less? Im not worried about the literal best and brightest who have sacrificed a lot making 10x what poor folk make. Its the ceo's making well over 100x and that includes hospital administrators and insurance companies. The doctors actually do the things that help us.
