I met a primary physician(IM) last week that told me a primary doc can make 300k+ easily and dont have to work hard. In fact, he told me that he has been making in the high 300s and low 400's in the past four year. I asked him how can he be making that much when the average salary primary care physicians is 170k+. His answer was (I am quoting): "I dont where people got these numbers from. I have at least 6 friends that that are primary docs, and all of them are making 250K+. You have to know how to play the game". He proceeded on saying: I have an hospitalist job that pay me 200k. I have my own practice that I staff with a Physician Assistant and spend about 20 hours a week there, and I gross about 150+k a year there. Is that possible?
