What is the salary for an Anesthesiologist?

In August and September 2022, we had the Annual Salary and Employment Survey. The survey collected responses from anesthesiologists who practice on a locum tenens basis, as well as those with permanent salaries. The compensation results included only full-time, permanent employees and took into account annual salary and bonuses. This comprehensive survey provides valuable insights into the salary and employment landscape for anesthesiologists.

How does this year's salary for Anesthesiologists compare to other years?

During the pandemic, the average salary of anesthesiologists declined. Many lost work or shifted roles to assist with intubating COVID patients, resulting in a noticeable decrease in 2020. However, it has rebounded to surpass previous highs.

 

Anesthesiologists understand the demand for their expertise during this time and are reluctant to accept lower pay. This tension between anesthesiologists seeking opportunities and medical facilities aiming to fill positions has led to ongoing gaps in healthcare provision.
