Does anyone have any reliable information about starting salaries in psychiatry? Every salary survey I see shows that psychiatrists average around $120k - $130k. But when I was on my psych rotation last fall, some of the residents told me that recent residency graduates had offers in the $170k-180k range. I don't know what to believe!
So for those of you who have asked around about this topic, what kind of numbers have you been hearing? I'm intrested in recent starting salaries as well as what more established psychiatrists are making.
Obviously, I'm not going to choose my specialty based just on salary! But I'm still deciding between a few specialties, and from what I've seen, psych pays by far the least. I just want to be as informed as possible.
Thanks in advance!
