How much does an average spine surgeon get payed?!


Question: It depends on what you mean by "spine surgeon"? Surgeons who work on the nerves of the spine are called neurologists. Surgeons who work on the bones of the spine are called orthopedists. Sometime more than one type of surgeon is needed to complete a single surgical procedure.

A neurologist can make anywhere between $13-19 thousand dollar a month. An orthopedist probably makes about twice as much. A lot depends on your experience, expertise, and the amount of work you're willing to put into your practice.

14,000 mmonth,,, jk idk

I know an orthopedist who has done spinal surgeries every now and then in Mexico. The cash earned highly depends on which hospital he operates in. Some hospitals pay peanuts even if they are top notched fancy places with gold fountains decorated everywhere, and public government hospitals easily pay 1000 dollars for a 3 hour surgery.

However, orthopedists unless they specialize in the back only, do a huge array of operations that can be done in less than an hour or take hours and hours and hours...
