Do doctors always make 6 figures a year? Or does it depend on where they practice?

What do they make starting out?
Answer:
i am a family docotor in the USA, look at the questions i asked and you should get the idea
i work 72 hours in a weeks and the next week i have off, so i besically work 6 months. i work at a hospital, with 10-12 hours shifts. but i enjoy my job because i work 6 months and still make $150,000..
i might work a full time job in the future during the week off and hopefully boost my salary to $170,000-180,000

it all depends on luck in how much you make and your locations, but the hospital is near the city so more business
any other questions e-mail, since this week i am off, lots of time off
It depends on specialty. The doctors making the most have to pay out the most in malpractice premiums. Specialists exceed family practicioners and some specialties of high risk such as neurosurgery and plastic surgery top the income list.
It depends on how much they work, where they work, what specialty they practice, the type of practice situation they are in, and the insurances that their patients have (or don't have).
Too many variables to give you even a ballpark figure.
Generally they make 6 figure incomes, but some make much more. It really depends upon the specialty, skill and the location. Here's a site that will help:
