I do some locums at nearby clinics sometimes, averaging a 30k - 40k per year bonus. I also have a HUGE patient load, it's like any other profitable business, the more you work, the more $$ you'll make.
260K in NYC is quite average for someone who is experienced. A buddy of mine recently got an offer in Minnesota, 350k working 4 days a week 9am 6pm, 15 - 25 consults a day including outpatients, on call every 1/2 weekends.
The numbers i'm throwing may seem incredible to you, but then again, it depends very highly on the location and the salary ranges vary very widely.
Though, if you're a doctor in any field, and someday you'll happen to be offered such a high salary , be afraid , be very afraid of the work load you'll get.
That's pretty sweet man. So what do you do with all that money, living in the middle of nowhere? Driving a Ferrari or saving up for very early retirement?
