They are paid fine, for the work they do and where most situations the patient's life is on the line, it's delicate work. If something goes wrong, he's definitely underpaid. :D

Not even a little. There are plenty that don't make nearly as much as you might think.

The reason they get payed so much is because they bring in alot of money, and they're one of a kind. They're no Tiger Wood's school, but there is a med school.

I don't know about doctors, but I can tell you nurses--LPNs in particular--are grossly underpaid.

Considering that most doctors usually spend lots of money and many years to get a professional education in order to become skilled enough in their profession, I think they are paid fine. It's not all that easy being a doctor.

They are probably the people that deserve the most money for what they do.

I could not agree more. What's the point for paying people millions of dollars to play a game.

No. They go through all that schooling and then make boat loads. That is fair.
