[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, get lost. WTH? Do you know how much you could hurt MDs with this info? 
The vast majority of people are going to think, oh, they make so much. But they will have NO idea of the daily stress and long hours (on our feet) with no food. Hours in the OR with one case 6, 7 hours standing, not able to see our kids.
Dam it stop this thread. [/quote]

Oh get off your high horse! Plenty if people do that and more for $25,000/year.[/quote]

True, but they don't spend 8 years in school +3+ years in training with little pay and have 6 figures of debt to show for it.  [/quote]

I beg to differ. My sister, a shelter veterinarian, could set you straight on many career paths with similar outcomes. I suspect, for many doctors, it is not about the money, even when they make lots of it. Family members of mine are specialists who make loads of money, and I still don't think it's enough for all they do - so again, that's good that most of them are doing it for other reasons than money. And every single one of them gives back. And I'm not talking about lip service charitable donation. I'm talking about personal time and money spent volunteering and donating to multiple charities, etc.

I don't get the point of this thread, anyway, and am actually kind of glad doctors aren't as gauche as the lawyers on this board, listing their income as if it's anyone's business. [/quote]
