This cartoon is based on data from the 2015 Medscape Physician Compensation Report. Dermatology is on one end, internal medicine on the other. The other specialties in between.

This cartoon was illustrated by radiologist James Chang. Go and visit his site, Poor MD, for more medical illustrations.
One on the left it when you go to the doctor in pain and the one on the right is when they've done their best
