How much do Oral and Maxillofacial surgeons make during residency? The OMFS Dr. I work for said you dont make very much and then he just went into his office. Do you guys have any numerical idea of how much they make?

Thanks,
Justin

I suppose low end would be $35k, maybe $60k at top end? Lots provide insurance, some meals, some uniform related expenses, etc.

They're GME funded so be glad you'll get something.

$2-3/hour I bet! You aint getting rich.

You can find this info on any omfs website. They publish it up front.

Example:

You will notice a very hansom raise for being chief resident.

enough that you can't collect food stamps, and barely enough to be called doctor. The nurses and PA's make more than you.
