How much do neurosurgeons get a year?
A neurosurgeon studies for an absolute minimum of 14 years before being legally qualified to poke inside someone's head. But even after four years pre-med, four years MD and six years of residency, many neurosurgical candidates cram in a two-year master's degree and follow their residency with a one- to two-year subspecialty fellowship, if not significant Ph.D. research in neuroscience. And if you think that's a long haul as an impoverished student, try doing it while all your med school buddies are living large on GP salaries. On the flip side, the patient having his or her head examined probably feels better knowing that the guy wielding the knife put in 20 years for the privilege. But 20 years...isn't that a bit much? Lowest Reported $279655 Average Reported $438426 Highest Reported $713961 Answer: My father makes $18mill + a year. And it's 600,000 per surgery (depending on a procedure).
$500,000-$2,000,000.
depends if you good
Where can one find local bariatrics surgeons?
a bariatric surgeon
That is a simplistic answer. At this point, many types of doctors are doing the surgery, simply because they can get insurance money to do them. I think this is one of the reasons there are so many deaths and complications from this type of surgery - too many surgeons who are not licensed in bariatrics trying to do this.
May I just say that if you are considering this type of surgery, try EVERYTHING else first. Does anyone else find it repulsive that doctors will deny or put off needed surgeries on overweight people for almost any other thing, but are more than willing to cut them open in the name of losing weight. I think they just fear lawsuits. But, if they have the skills and means to do bariatric surgery, then they should apply the same knowledge to their overweight patient's other needs as well.
(And I speak from experience - I was denied a much-needed hysterectomy 6 years ago because of my weight, but the same doctor brought me a load of paperwork on bariatric surgery, telling me to get that surgery first, then come get my hysterectomy. Never mind all the health issues that the neglected hyst has caused - they just brushed me off. It is time overweight people start demanding more in-depth health care that is given to people of "normal" weight.)

Which country has the best medical surgeons in the world?
The United States as the best surgeons in the world.
I quote from the above answer 'States as the best' ... they may have good doctors but when someone can't spell 'has' correctly you know there's something wrong with their education system... To answer Your question, if you want specialist healthcare then go to America. If you want general surgery then go to Europe where they strive for patient care, not the #1 spot...
This depends on the type of surgeon and the number of years of training. A doctor has completed 4 years of college and 4 years of medical school and 1-3 years of internship (sometimes combined with residency) Then, she may have 3-6 more years of residency in her specialty. That adds up to many years and much expense for her. I would guess that the lowest would be $200, 000 per year to more than $400,000 per year.
