The average Gastroenterologist salary is nowhere near that figure. According to Medscape's Gastroenterologist Compensation Report 2011, Gastroenterologists have a median income of $300,000. This is achievable after a MINIMUM of 16 years of 80-100 hr/week training and education after high school and then several years in practice. The source for the ridiculous $457,000 figure is a New York Times liberal writer and the article itself is a pitch for Obamacare /socialized medicine. Actually, physician's salary's account for only 8% of all healthcare spending and is therefore certainly not why our healthcare is so expensive. Doctors in other countries make about 30% less than US docs but dont pay $90,000/year for malpractice insurance against lawyers, they dont train as long, they work 40% fewer hours/week, and they dont pay $45,000/year x 4 years for med school and so dont have the now US average $230,000 debt upon graduation with interest paid at 7-10% interest PER YEAR, EVERY YEAR.
