Loved by 10K+ physicians, APPs, and students

Mary T.

MD PCCM

This resource is valuable for students and residents, but it’s even more valuable for providers later in their careers as they seek to renegotiate a contract or consider changing jobs. It completely levels the playing field.

Anthony B.

MD Plastic Surgery

This is an incredibly valuable resource for physicians while navigating the opaque and confusing process of compensation & contract negotiations.

Shannon N.

MD Hospitalist

It’s always been difficult to compare “apples to apples” in Hospitalist jobs. Thanks for showing some of the details of total comp that make that a little easier.

Michael S.

MS4

And not that money is everything obviously but even for students--as we plan our futures and what we want them ppl to look like, it's so helpful to know what we're getting into--and to see a light at the end of the tunnel!

Sarah D.

ACNP

Used this data to successfully negotiate a raise with my employer! Thank you!

Preston F.

DO Emergency Medicine

I love your project! I was looking for something like this to happen, and I’m so grateful you did it.

Lauren B.

3rd year Med Student

This is a HOMERUN for medical students like myself! Especially now, with tuition as high as it is, I need this information as I consider which specialties to pursue. I would be crazy to make that decision without this.

Helen J.

MD Psychiatry

I love your project! It is long overdue for medicine. Hopefully, you can gain some momentum and make it even bigger and better.

Carmela M.

FNP

Thank you for undertaking this massive project. This is really important work and I’m grateful to people like you who are willing to do it. And not that money is everything obviously but even for students--as we plan our futures and what we want them to look like, it's so helpful to know what we're getting into--and to see a light at the end of the tunnel!

Derrick A.

MD PGY3

With the cost of medical education ballooning, at least I’ll know a little more about what life will look like when I start paying down my student loan debt

Jeremy C.

CRNA

Finally, we can see salaries that aren’t just meaningless, high-level averages. With this, I can visualize how I can prioritize lifestyle and make X or prioritize income and make Y.

Byron W.

MD Ophthalmology

As an academic professor who’s often mentoring residents about to enter the workforce or a fellowship, this is an invaluable tool everyone should use. It’s also insightful to me because I can look specifically at other academic positions in my field to see where I stand.

Charles G.

MD Neurosurgeon

This website is so helpful and easy to navigate. It’s nice to be able to compare actual salaries and job details to really paint the whole picture of what a job entails.

Simon D.

DO Internal Medicine

I found this a few months too late. I recently left my long-term group to move to a different city and practice. This would have given me a direct look into the local market compensation and helped set the floor for my compensation negotiation.

Praveen P.

PA Student

As a soon-to-be graduating PA, this is awesome! Thank you!

Terrence P.

MD Family Medicine

FINALLY! I’ve been looking for something exactly like this!!

Rachel E.

PNP

I haven’t ever been concerned that I wasn’t being paid fairly, because I really didn’t know what “fair” pay was until now. I guess I had my “head in the sand” until now and just felt there was no way to know. Thank you for making this so widely accessible to all!

Beth A.

CAA Student

Firstly, thank you SO MUCH for creating this—it's phenomenal! I'm a nontraditional student (started last year at age 38) after a career in human resources. This kind of information is so helpful for folks to have when negotiating contracts and mulling over their options to make the best career decision for themselves.

Howard B.

MD Urology

We’ve always had to trust sources of salary information that weren’t always trustworthy. I think I’d rather trust this community of doctors more. At least we’re on the same team.

Anthony L.

4th year med student

As a student, this data represents the “light at the end of the tunnel.” Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately, now I’m gonna endlessly scroll so I don’t have to study

Elizabeth G.

MD Pediatrics

This data is so helpful, thank you for making it accessible for everyone.

Andrei M.

DO Nocturnist

It’s always good to be able to check the local markets and make sure I’m not getting lapped just because I didn’t have the right information available. Fortunately, my salary appears to be at market. Phew!

Steven H.

MD Nephrology

Thank you so much for this. Your effort is appreciated, especially since it’s free and available for all.

Tracy F.

MD Heme/Onc

This product is long overdue for Medicine! I don’t know if it will help me negotiate any better, but at least it levels the playing field a bit for everyone seeking to be paid “our worth.”

David L.

MD Diagnostic Radiology

Compensation packages are so complicated. Thanks for simplifying some of these numbers and presenting them very easily and visually.

Thomas B.

MD Anesthesiology

FREE? You have to be kidding me! This information has always been completely locked behind a paywall and not quite as detailed. You’ve done a huge service to the medical community.

Kira K.

MD Hospitalist

Anonymous peers helping peers level up—I don’t know if it gets better than that. Thanks to everyone who has shared and paid it forward.
