Physician Compensation: Gains Small, Gaps Large (MDedge)

Doximity’s 2025 Physician Compensation Report shows only modest pay growth but widening disparities across gender, pediatric vs. adult specialties, and practice settings. Gastroenterologists averaged $537,870, ranking 13th overall. Despite rising burnout and overwork, most physicians would still choose the profession—though many consider leaving or scaling back. The findings highlight systemic inequities, with AGA leaders calling for stronger gender equity initiatives.
