6. Gastroenterology
Overall satisfaction rate: 57%
We are continuing our list of happiest medical specialties with the most satisfied doctors with gastroenterologists that deal with the entire path of the digestive system. These specialists earn about $380K every year and yet, surprisingly, out of all the types of doctors on our list, gastroenterologists are the least satisfied when it comes to salary. This field of medicine is also pretty much dominated by men, as only 15 percent of these physicians are women. But 61 percent of gastroenterologists said that they would choose medicine again while 60 percent said they would choose the same specialty again, which is a high percentage for doctors. They’re not one of the happiest medical specialties for nothing!
