GASTROENTEROLOGIST SALARIES
Most of you might remember the line from Robbin's Pathology : "Once an ulcer patient, ALWAYS an ulcer patient" - which means, a never ending market for a Gastro specialist ;-)
After completing a residency in Internal Medicine, Gastroenterology remains one of the most fiercely competed and prestigious fellowships, besides Cardiology and Nephrology.
Pays are excellent and so are the job opportunities ! Lets have a quick look at how much Gastroenterologists earn as a base average annual salary in the USA
Remember these are only averages, and you may might higher and lower paid Gastroenterologists. Group Practices usually pay physicians more but may have higher malpractice insurance premium rates. I did come across a job posting offering upto 425,000/- a year for an experienced Gastroenterologist for an expanding group practice in a Midwest Missouri town.

A. A 2 to 3 year fellowship after a 3 year Residency in Internal Medicine !

i dont know but im going into peds gi , but I imagine it is unfortunately
Mmmm very good specialty, I would be happy if I got into a GI fellowship.
I've heard of a GI doc making over a million in a year on a more relevant note.
I work as a GI in Canada. I made $520,000 this year. I work a lot though - 8 AM to 5 PM and I round every 2-3 weekends. I also work like an animal in those 10 hours of work daily, and my endoscopy days are jam packed. Pay is directly proportional to workload - I have visited colleagues in the US who make around 300k a year, but they literally work 60% of the load. If I do 16 endoscopies a day, they'l do 10. If I round on 40 patients, they'll round on 25. A busy ERCP day for them is 4 cases. For me it's 7 or 8.
