5 Highest Paying Countries for Doctors

2. United States

Average Salary: $266,558 

America is facing a growing shortage of geriatricians, doctors who specialize in caring for elderly patients. The demand for geriatric medicine is rising as the proportion of elderly people in the population increases, with around 25% predicted to be over 65 in North America and Europe by 2050. However, the supply of geriatricians in the US is failing to meet this demand. It is also one of the countries that produce the best doctors. Cardiothoracic Surgery and Radiation Oncology are two of the highest-paid medical specialties in the US with average salaries of $512,200 and $446,250, respectively.
