How much money do neonatologists earn?
It varies with the severity and complexity of the required care; starting at a few hundred dollars and ending at tens of thousands PER DAY.
Neonatal nursing care can cost a horrendous amount of money. There probably isn't a way to put a "cost" on it per se, but viewed as a percentage of the budget for a medical institution, it is a big drain on resources. There are those who would argue that some of the patients in neonatal nursing are "not deserving" of the care they are given. Specifically these are infants of severely addicted mothers. The medical issues these newborns present with are overwhelming, and the child saved by intervention may well face a lifetime of challenges because of other maladies that are the result of the mother's drug use during gestation. The institutions and the government are stuck with the cost of this care, and it is an issue with no seeming solution.
How many years does a pediatrician have in college?
I wouldn't recommend becoming a doctor if you're after an early retirement, as it's eight years of training and usually several more years just to pay off your loans. When a doctor can retire also depends on a lot of other things like level of training, how many hours they work, how respected they are, and how long they've been in the practice. Medical training is also very exhausting, as you will frequently be up 24 hours or more at once. You have to study, work shifts, and do whatever else you have to do to take care of yourself. It's exhausting, but it's rewarding if that's what you really, really want to do.

If a pediatrician works for a hospital then yes they have sick leave, but they need to call in so that another pediatrician can see their patients. If a pediatrician is in private practice, they don't usually have sick leave, but can try to call another pediatrician to see their patients for them. If they can get someone to cover them, then they can take off, if not, then they have to come in.
How long does it take to become a pediatrician in the state of Oregon?
After graduating from high school, a student that wants to become a Pediatrician must finish:
• four years of college
• four years of medical school
• one year of a Pediatrics internship
• two years of a Pediatrics residency
So that adds up to about 11 years of school and training to become a Pediatrician.
It is important to note that during your internship and residency years, while you are still learning, you are not really in school and are getting paid for your work.
As an alternative, you could apply for an accelerated college/medical school program, which can compress those eight years of school into just six or seven years.

How much does a OBGYN visit cost?
It depends on what state you live in.
Average office visit is 80$ and any tests will run 75-100$ or more. Depending on what you are getting tested for.
