Also, when you answer the question, can the responder not "quote" the question? I want to delete the question if I violate any rules on SDN. Hopefully, I have not violated any rule. Please just type your answer, thank you.

thanks.
Once, MAYBE. However, you don't get to put that on every post you make. Requests like yours make people either ignore you completely, or bristle at your artificial requests.

Take it or leave it.
 
hi everyone,

I googled how much an internal medicine physician make in a year and it gave me a 6 figure number....I know new physicians (or residents) do not make a lot of money like what the stat said on Google.

So just curious, how much does a non-resident physician take home after the tax deduction? I believe the net income is dependent on salary.

Lol, my god, obvious troll is obvious. Google how much doctors earn, then throw it into a paycheck calculator like paycheckcity.com and you'll have your answer.
 
Physician incomes are variable, and this is not just for internal medicine. It would depend on a variety of factors, such as academic vs. private practice, procedural subspecialty (examples: interventional cardiology, gastroenterology) vs. non-procedural subspecialty (examples: infectious disease, endocrinology), payer mix, geography, etc.

Why are you asking?

Residents are considered "physicians." Residents make about $50k per year, give or take, depending on the program. Some programs you can make closer to $40k per year, other programs you can make closer to $60k per year. You could be working 80 hours or more per week though (e.g., if you're in the ICU).

By "non-resident physician," do you mean attending and not someone who didn't do a residency or finish their residency?

In any case, your "take home after the tax deduction" primarily depends on where you work. Some states have much higher tax burdens than other states, some states have no state income tax, there are many other variables to consider. But maybe you should ask an accountant this question since most of us are physicians, not accountants.
 
it varies alot by specialty and geography. then also the amount of work u are doing.
i tink doximity is a hepful tool for this although honestly i tink people just dont share this information willingly and the numbers are much more varied than reported.
some docs just make more money under the table then reported

whoa, I did not know you can work under the table as a physician. I don't know much about how physicians get their income, that's news to me. so how does working under the table work for a physician...

Podiatrists are especially apt at greasing the wheels of reimbursement LOL
