Well if you believe what we're told publicly, then GPs get anything from $120,000 to $250,000. It'd be slightly higher for specialties such as paediatricics, then increase to anything from $500,000 to $1,000,000.

Of course, it'd change depending on whether you work in the private or public sector + the insurance for your particular specialty.

yeah when you consider the long hours we work in internship that figure is comparable to a Maccas hourly wage. I kid you not.
sxy_grl...if you're doing it for the money, then go do commerce or something.

NO

Gp's earn less than that. Most GP's would earn less than $120,000. Paediatricians earn slightly higher than GP's.
Neurosurgery, cosmetic surgery are the highest earners, depending on situation, maybe around $600,000
Dermatologists earn around $300,000.
If you're interested, there was an article in a laymen's source (Radar - SMH) which stated that gastroenterologists could possibly earn a million dollars a year.
