If you are thinking of working in Medicine in Australia you may naturally want to know exactly how much you will earn. Having worked in the Medical HR field for over two decades I thought I would challenge myself to write you a comprehensive post to cover as many possibilities as could be thought of.

But first let’s get the question of the range of doctor salaries dealt with. As of March 2019, A doctor salary will range from a low of $68,000AUD per annum as an Intern in the State of NSW to a possible high rate of $393,467AUD on average per annum for a Surgeon (according to Nine Finance).

Now let’s dive deeper. Because most doctors, can often earn a lot more than average, particularly by working additional hours and working in the private sector. Let’s also look at what various types of training doctors make in pay before looking at the various specialties and some other categories of doctors.
