They are trained to do procedures on the intestines via the mouth or rectum with a camera. They do not make incisions to take out your gallbladder for instance. They would do one procedure to see that the gallbladder was the problem, and they can sometimes fix that problem using special tools via a tube in your mouth, but a surgeon would be the one to actually remove your gallbladder. They are trained like a regular medical physician/internist and then have one additional year (usually) of extra training in the procedures. Surgeons have usually 5-7 years of training (or more sometimes) specifically in the procedures that they do.

There is no question that medical doctors are some of the highest paid specialists in America. A doctor's income can range from 80, 000 dollars a year to 3, 000, 000 dollars a year. Three factors that contribute to this difference in yearly income are a doctor's specialty, affiliation, and ownership in a private practice medical group. For example, a Gastroenterologist who is employed by a hospital, or a large medical corporation, will usually make less than a Gastroenterologist who shares ownership in an 8 to 20 man private practice medical group. This differentiation in yearly income also applies for Cardiologists, Neurologists, OBGYNs, Radiologists, Anesthesiologists, Urologists, Oncologists, and Pediatrists. These specialists are capable of making up to 600, 000 dollars a year if they share ownership in a private practice medical group. This number can be cut in half if these specialists are employed by a hospital, or a large medical corporation. Now, Internists, Family Practitioners, and Pediatricians are among the lowest paid doctors in America. This is because their level of expertise does not include costly medical procedures. Their average work day mainly consists of basic examinations, prescribing medications, and referring patients to specialists, which does not generate a large amount of income. On the other hand, Orthopedic Surgeons, Plastic Surgeons, Neurosurgeons, Cardiothoracic Surgeons, Cardiovascular Surgeons, and Pediatric Surgeons, are among the highest paid doctors in America. These specialists are capable of making 800, 000 dollars a year to 3, 000, 000 dollars a year regardless of being in a private practice medical group, or being an employee of a hospital. This is because the cost of surgery is extremely high, and these specialists generate a large amount of income for a hospital; therefore, their yearly income is extremely high. Now, certain medical specialists who share ownership in a private practice medical group are capable of making up to 1, 000, 000 dollars a year. These specialists include Dermatologists, Ophthalmologists, and Orthodontists. This is because their level of expertise includes cosmetic (cash up front) care, and/or highly expensive medical procedures.
