Doctors' pay

Shah, registrars get pretty crap pay. NHG quoted me something like $8,000 for an associate consultant. Apparently though the pay rises quite rapidly when you become a consultant then senior consultant, although I suppose by then you can go to the dark side and do private practice.

Admin, in your post, you mention that GPs get $14,000. The table actually says "General Physician" which has a different implication to "General Practitioner" to people in the medical field. Can you clarify which it actually is? I'm wondering if I should bother coming back to Singapore to work.

A specialist doctor getting 5000 SGD a month is good, medium or bad pay?

Frankly I think $60k p.a. is bad pay, at least for the level of skill (not to mention the risk too) expected from doctors. It doesn't make sense to me that you can hire 5 specialists for the price of 1 investment banker, when doctors are supposed to save lives (and IB'ers only make ours more miserable). Seriously, the world is screwed up.
