[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread needs to go on. The practice of not discussing and revealing salary information only benefits corporations and hospitals. This needs to serve as a guide for all job seekers, young and old.

Saw these on Glassdoor - this is the first time I see DC area salary lower than national average.

National Avg     DC area
Physicians        $175,929          $161,775
Surgeons         $273,922          $221,039

Dentists:         $132,125          $123,940
Orthodontists   $243,120[/quote]
These seem low. The surgeons I know in this area all started out at well over 300k[/quote]

I believe these salaries are self reported. For surgeons, 5 physicians reported so it is the average of 5 surgeons, most likely right out of fellowship. I just can't see DH or any of his colleagues going on a website like glassdoor to self report their salary.[/quote]

Do these averages include residents? These numbers seem really low. DH is a surgeon and most of his colleagues earn at least 400. Radiologists earn 300. Anesthesiologists make 200-300. Are specialists not considered physicians?[/quote]
