I've found many people are interested in just what kind of compensation can be expected after sooooooo many years of studying and hard work.
After scouring the web for a while I was able to compile some of the average salaries in the different specialties. If you want even more information, try Salary.com to find out how much you would make in a certain specialty in your zip code.
By the way these salaries are all based upon 3 years of practice after residency and do not include bonuses or benefits (which usually add quite a bit more to the average physician's bottom line).
Primary Care
Family Practice..................................$147,516
Internal Medicine...............................$160,318
