Our ER guys start around 160-180 right out of school, general surgeons only start at 120. I figure a GP is somewhere in between there. But a resident from our program took a job in a rural oklahoma ER and got 300k to start.

So, why do americans think their doctors make so much more than ours???

300k is about the standard for any specialist starting out. Family doc's, about 200k...
