"Contracts introduced four years ago have led to the average pay for a family doctor soaring to £118,000 despite many opting out of evening and weekend care."
That's roughly $182,000 USD for a family doctor. Specialists typically earn much less than in the US, but my point was that there are roughly comparable salaries for most physicians.

In the national report compiled by the
Canadian Institute for Health Information, average, fee for service payments to family doctors are $240,356 in B.C.
Nationally, the figure is $241,077. The figures are for gross earnings, before overhead expenses which can take as much as 40 per cent away from gross fee sums.
Medical specialists (such as internists, pediatricians, neurologists, anesthesiologists and psychiatrists) are collecting $288,532 on average in B.C., compared to the national average of $310,351. Surgical specialists in B.C. are making an average of $425,836, slightly lower than the national average of $432, 643.
Given that these salaries are roughly worth 76% less than the US, Canadian doctors come very close to average US salaries, but falling a bit short. Still, physicians in these countries make princely sums compared to those in 98% of the rest of the world, where most doctors earn less than a US nurse.
