Doctors Salaries in T&T

[neexis]

In 2012 my girlfriend at the time was making 18k as a pediatrician I'm not sure if this was before or after tax

That figure sounds about right for a House Officer

Nothing special

Doctors in Trinidad dirt poor.

If they lazy. My cousin is my age we both went Hillview and then UWI at the same time - he did medicine whilst I chose Business. He has just bought a 3m dollar house and a 2nd SUV. I wish I had that equivalent spending power.

He works for an RHA but does extra work on the side. Not as much time for the family as should be ideal but you are able to give them a very good life otherwise.

Like a lot of other careers if you go the extra mile, you will be compensated. It's just a shame that society will use your cousin and other doctors like him as a sweeping generalization that most, if not all doctors have that caliber of financial clout. That being said, if you are intelligent with your income, and have no loans to pay off from med school (the big killer), you should be able to afford a decent lifestyle within a reasonable time frame. But it's still hard work - no matter what. Esp. in the public sector.

22k is not much money for that kinda work though.. even if it is tax free.

Engineers in the energy sector FTW

Engineering is the best bet if you looking for money . Medicine you could basically get your whole career flushed down the drain in a one versus most other professions you just press back space . The man with bathe cousin with the 3 million dollar house has to compare if their parents make the same money and if these guys had cars from the start so didn't need any basic down payment and such . That description is too black and white of the cousin just balling straight off like that . His wife not working and I'm sure brought in some assets

Buhahahhaha oh god oui

Engineering is competitive in terms of getting a job but overall time and lifestyle this is the best . Medicine is heading down a crappy slope all around the world .if these guys going into a profession for the money for both the rest of us and themselves medicine isn't the best bet

True, NHS, Trinidad, USA...Someone who is wealthy enough to pay for service has much more options than someone seeking care in the public sector. Most pronounced in the USA though

More than 400 doctors from the South West Regional Health Authority (SWRHA) are upset over the removal of motor vehicle tax exemptions from their joint collective agreement. At a news conference held at the San Fernando Medical Library yesterday, acting president Dr Ravindranath Narine claimed the decision to remove the tax exemption was taken unilaterally by the Chief Personnel Officer Stephanie Lewis without consultation with MPATT, the recognised trade union.

there are still some engineering fields that are relatively easy to get in,
unfortunately most of the uwi kids feel they to good to earn the small starting salaries compared to the oil companies.
although right now everyone in a difficult position due to oil downturn.

Yes and because they are easy to get in, the money is small at first. I remember when the Chemical Engineer was almost revered and compensated as such. Now experienced, and even semi-experienced operators and lab techs getting what a CE starting with.

Spies make good money...

Hey everyone, i know this is a Doctors Salaries Thread but just wanted to ask a quick question.
Would IT persons ever make as close to doctors or engineers in terms of salaries? Seems the IT field is so underpaid.

The "it" dept by us is a total waste of time and they are compensated well, too well to be wasting time playing video games while there are office PCs with fixable issues.
