It depends on what field of medicine they are practicing. Primary care MDs can make around that much or less...especially Pediatricians. Of course, their residencies are less rigorous and shorter than mine. (Pediatrics, Internal Medicine, Family Medicine- 3 year residencies; Surgery and Surgical Subspecialties 5-7 years, Radiology 5 years.) There are many physicians who make more than that...some make A LOT more!
