Yes you will get roughly the same pay which the same as a gp in pte practice
Please note that to get to fam med con.
You need a fcpfs.
And whether they are positions for con.
In general the time taken to reach fm con is twice that of the usual specialist.
Think ho + 3yr fm residency + 1 year mcpfs + 3-5 real life experience + 2 years fcpfs = 12 years at least
