Physician Salaries

IUhealth

Hi, 

I am a physician in USA and have some qustions about M.D. Salaries in Qatar (specifically in HMC) 

Here in the states:

A general internal medicine doctor would earn $12000-$18000 a month 

A specialist (cardiology, oncology, GI ...etc) would earn an easy $25000-$40000

Are those salaries compared to what would be paid in Qatar? And what packages would they offer?

Any ideas about work hours?

As I nsaid earlier, It all depends on the institution and ofcourse the old adage - You get what you pay for .. :O)

You better stay where you are. Physicians do not have a high social prestige in Qatar, and hence no high, prestigious salary!

Do you mean physicians get QR12000-18000 a month!!! Is that even enough to make a living in an expensive city like Doha!

Convert the Dollar into Riyal and that's what you get here.

To my knowledge salaries for physicians are not even close in terms of base salaries at HMC.
