Resilience in Practice: Dr. Alan Diaz Confronts Bias in Medicine
The average physician salary rose only 3.6% this year, far below inflation and pre-pandemic trends, according to Medscape’s 2024 Physician Compensation Report. Nearly half of physicians said their pay has remained stagnant, while gender and racial pay gaps continue to widen—women now earn $98,000 less on average than men. Minority physicians trail behind their white counterparts. With mounting financial pressure, reimbursement cuts, and limited legislative relief, more physicians ask: “Am I being paid fairly?”
