NSGYDoc, you are amazing.

But yes, $600,000 a year? Wonderful. How much would someone in Internal Medicine be making after their residency?
Too general a question. It depends if the resident pursued fellowship training. It depends what area of medicine the physician practiced (outpatient clinic only? academics? hospitalist?). It depends on the location of the physician.

All those factors accounted for, I will acknowledge it's rare to find someone in pure internal medicine coming close to a neurosurgeon. (The caveat being it's generally easier to get into IM, easier to survive the IM residency, and will generally enjoy better hours as an IM attending. Yes, exceptions do exist to all the above)
