Is there a difference in the salaries if you're a M.D. or D.O. in orthopedic surgery, or are they the same?

Question

Is there a difference in the salaries if you're a M.D. or D.O. in orthopedic surgery, or are they the same?

Answer 1

no, but keep in mind it is going to be much harder to get a residency in that coming out of a DO school as opposed to an MD school... rule of thumb, if you can go MD, go MD.

If you grades are 3.3-3.5, go DO.

if you are below a 3.3 go to the carribean

in the end, all are doctors
