Fine. Residents make 50-80k. A GP in New Mexico just starting out might make barely 100k. But anyone who is saying that doctors aren't generally very well paid is delusional.

How much debt do you think the average resident has when they come out of the program?

Residency doesn't cost money, you make money, but you usually don't make enough to make any significant headway in your debt. I've heard lots of different estimates on average indebtedness, so take it for what its worth, but I would say its around $150,000. Mine is going to be ~$250,000.

None, cause doctor daddy and doctor mommy paid for med school. Dont you know almost every doctor is the offspring of at least one and sometimes two other rich doctors?

I thought this was common knowledge. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
