Naiara’s Answer

Danna,

Any physician and specialty has a lot of potential. You should not go into medicine because of salary. Doctors are really well-paid, but go through extensive training and have a high stressful career. If you have a true interest in medicine and fits your personality, you will enjoy your daily work and thrive.

Rachel’s Answer

The salary of a plastic surgeon is highly variable. Salary will depend on your patient volume as well as whether you are in private practice or academia. Private practice physicians are typically better reimbursed. You may have a starting salary of ~$300,00. With time and building your practice, annual income could grow to $500,000+.
