- I get asked the question, 'how much money do doctors make?' every week on social media, so in this video I'm going to break down my payslip. I'll be explaining how much money I make as a junior doctor in the UK, what contributes to my doctors pay, and the deductions.
Hopefully this will be interesting for people who want to have an insight into medicine as a career, I'm trying to be as transparent as possible so that we can plan for our financial futures.
I'm currently working as a first year GP trainee, so I've worked for 3 years in hospital already (two during my Foundation Years, and one as a Locum Doctor).

⚡️About Another Indian Doctor
My name is Kiran and I'm a junior doctor (GP trainee) and comedian. Finding information about your health can be overwhelming, boring and unreliable as you scroll through pages of sites trying to sell you essential oils to cure that pain in your elbow. I'm hoping to empower people to understand more about their health, but also to make it easy and fun to watch. I hope you enjoy my videos and that they can help you achieve a different outlook on your health and I'd love to hear from you on Instagram (@kiran.morjaria).

I think amount of hours you put in and hard work too, for my thought it’s less.🤔
Way more then i thought 😂
@@yasharma03 Oh really! What were you thinking?
@@Kiran.Morjaria in india it's very less, about 6 to 8 lakhs.
@@Kiran.Morjaria tell us more about your life, daily life, how u reach England and all.
So kind of you, people never like to share such information. You are absolutely wonderful
Thank you so much
if u work for NHS as any care worker, you will not make a lot of money unless your a consultant or a senior surgeon or some other high paid specialist. Its a public sector working environment so dont expect to make anywhere near as someone who has their own business, (Sole Trader) I mean.
@@Kiran.Morjaria in india currency your salary
Love, love, LOVE this! We need more honesty and transparency like this about salaries across all industries! Thank you!
Of course, especially in the public sector! Thanks for watching
I’m shocked at the amount of deductions you had aswell! I thought I was being robbed, you’re being robbed, AND tied up and slapped around abit 😲😂
Hahaha thanks Jonathan
I love it when professionals are so transparent with their income. It allows us to put things into perspective and negotiate our salaries wherever possible.
Thanks!
THANKYOU so much mate! I’m only just doing my A-levels this year, hoping to go into a medical profession. You’ve given me more clear information that google, and the uni I’m going to, have combined. 👍👍👍
Thanks Harry, glad you enjoyed it! Best of luck with your applications/A-levels
Ive had Hemiplegia since birth im so thankfull for the NHS, the system needs looking at and adjusting, but I feel without the NHS I wouldnt be where I am today working for myself paying my bils / tax and cycling to a decent level thankyou to all NHS staff ! x
That’s very kind, stay safe!
It’s disgraceful how much healthcare professionals earn! You all deserve so much more, such hard working individuals! 👏🏻 very grateful for you 👏🏻
Thanks Noeleen 👌🏾
Overpaid.
@@taffyterrier why are you everywhere?🤣🤣🤣 you must be someone who failed to become a doctor so you cry about their bad wages everywhere. get a life
All walks of life work hard
Appreciate you being so open and candid! This is very helpful!
Thanks Sarah! Of course
Popped up in my recommended videos to watch, great channel and the hospital you work at is down the road from where I live.
Awesome! These are old scrubs from years ago so I’m no longer there
This video is very insightful! I’m about to do my alevels in September and then study medicine to become a surgeon and this helped me to know more about my dream job !
Thank you! Good luck 🤞

Not watched the whole video yet, but I'd safely say, it's definitely not enough for the amazing, life saving work you do every day. Thank you
Thanks Louise
Thank you so much, but it’s just not enough money for all the hours you do, and all the lives you save, there isn’t a price on that. Thank you all as it’s obvious you do it because you have a beautiful heart.
Thanks Sharon, appreciate it
I’m not even training to be a doctor but I found this so interesting!!
Thanks Emily!
Same here, Thanks Dr.!

"That's a compromise that we have to make and something I'm happy to make to have free healthcare in this country".
I hope you realize how deep of an impact and how appreciated what you said is.
Earnings can be improved but personal health can not.
As a UK citizen, I aplaud and thank you for your service.
I hope you'll always see your profession as a valuable service to the public
Thanks AcctistaZ, many comments on the video talking about how much tax we pay - but in reality to have healthcare free at the point of use like this, and the speed at which we do emergency treatment and surgeries is actually amazing. I appreciate you taking the time to watch my videos
@@Kiran.Morjaria I guess this is just a small part of the story !!! With time and experience you definitely will end up with much more money in so many different ways !!! Plus you've got so much mobility to live anywhere within the U.K. and still have a great job
@@johnbrown-um3lf Yeah agreed, flexibility to work anywhere, job security and a small increase each year
loved the last part about the Health Care. It may not be the best but it's the best out there ! NHS
Omg!! You are the most honest person I encountered showing the exact number of wages and explaining every inch of the detail. It helped a lot to know for us. Thanks for this detailed video 😊👏🏻
Thank you, glad you found it helpful!
We all know that one has to be totally insane to work as a Doctor or a Teacher in the UK in terms of earnings. But it's so humbling to see people who can think beyond money. Thank you.
Thanks Siddharth, appreciate the comment
You misspelt humiliating , as humbling
@@paulmoutray9180 oh gosh Paul, I’m going to need some ice for that burn
That is so untrue. Try working in aviation where hundreds of thousands of lives depend on the skill of workmanship to ensure an aircraft is safe.Since Covid I have lost 5 months of pay from the decimation of my industry. No help from the government, not a penny! I can only dream of earning this kind of guaranteed income? I have to travel 700 plus miles a week to earn anything close to this money now and pay for my own accommodation, fuel and expenses since the new IR35 rules. No tax payer subsidised pension either? Just living week to week!
@@MrBloggs1970 exactly, so many people who work in the public sector seem to think private industry workers are raking in the money! It couldn't be further from that! An NHS admin easily earns 2x the salary or any private sector role of equal responsibility. And that's just the simplest example! It's the CEOs and board members who make the money in private companies, not the every day worker.
Thank you for your transparency!
No problem Ryan, thanks for the comment!
Yes my g, same vid 😂
Your doing a great job, pray your wealth increases even more, as healthcare professionals your investing in the sick and that's priceless.
Thanks Omar 🙌🏾
such a nice video and well explained - deserves many more views in my opinion

It was exactly what I expect. Very nice video. We generally forget about all the taxes and all. Thank you.
This is a really good video. Well done and thankyou. Production quality and delivery is so good, I watched till the end without losing concentration. The content was very useful as it helps us as medical students to know what is coming. Pls do a part two, talking more about costs
Hey man, I really appreciate your constructive feedback. It takes a while to make these videos so it’s great to know that you’re finding value from it!
Regarding costs, would you want to know what my living costs are? Or anything specifically?

Props to you for sharing. And even bigger props for not dragging out the vid by giving the total at the end.
Cheers, appreciate it! Makes it easy for someone just there for the number
This is very interesting. Thanks for being transparent. I think that its a decent amount for this stage of a public sector role.
I agree
I am not going to lie this is a lot less than I thought, your deductions are very high and I do think you deserve more .....you should not have to become a consultant to earn a decent wage! Very honest of you to do this and it is eye-opening.

Beautiful 😍 comment! Hello Joanne how are you doing today I hope that you are enjoying the weather conditions?
Overpaid.

very informative and wonderful to see someone being so open about earnings! Thanks
Thanks Marian!
Thanks for making this video - it's really insightful. I'm currently studying Biomed and will be applying for medicine this October. I honestly thought that doctors made a lot less than this (like £24,000 for F1/F2) so this was really interesting to find out!
No worries Rose thanks for watching! “Basic Salary” is misleading and is usually only like 75% of actual pay
This was the case until recently, I was on about basic £22k as an F1 back in 2009.
@@roxannacaruana1699 Yes thanks for clarifying, I’m on the new contract!

In our country as a doctor, if we try for a payrise we will get scolded
That was a really helpful video. Thanks for sharing 😁
Of course man! Glad it was helpful 👌🏾
Great content. I’m amazed at how honest and down to earth you are about being a doctor. I know allot that think are above others just because they’re qualified and work for the NHS. I think being a comedian has helped to not take yourself too seriously and realise it’s still a job just like others with own trials and tribulations. You will go far in life I’m very sure and money will get better with time and experience Pal. You’re appreciated immensely over this side….
Thanks Shaduwy, really appreciate the comment!
Hey Kiran, nice video! I'm a final year medical student and have been looking into FY1 pay recently - was expecting it to be a lot less than you quoted based on figures I have found
Hey Amir, great to hear from you! It's pretty variable between where you're working and what kind of rota you're on but this is my experience from my hospital! Also much more than I expected when I started, best of luck with FY applications
Very interesting video. Down to earth.👏🏽
🙏🏾
This is so helpful, I’d love to hear more on finances as a doctor.
For sure, what specifically would you want to know?
Thank you for making this vid - so useful! 👍
No worries George, thanks for the comment I’m glad you found it useful 👌🏾
That’s nice. Meanwhile, Boris spent £2.5million on a briefing studio we’ll never use.

Don't forget those wallpapers in his flat!
@@additional09 How much were they?
@@Kiran.Morjaria £840 a roll for the wallpaper and £9800 for a sofa. Apparently his girlfriend thinks John Lewis furniture is trashy so wanted to get something fitting for the upper class... the difficult life of the ruling aristocrats!

I didn’t realise how underpaid doctor are! You deserve so much more than that!
You mean doctors in the uk cause the USA pay checks look good to me
@@jackierose8990 yes I’m British and am referring to doctors in the UK. Our doctors work ridiculously long hours and make such a huge difference to people’s lives everyday and this is what they get paid?! Smh
@@jiffyreader6980 I agree
Thanks Jiffy!
I don’t think he is underpaid at all and neither does he. Every year he works this will sky rocket North! It just goes to show that doctors and nurses are paid for the hours they work and not unpaid for overtime! Nice video.

Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a wonderful day 🌻
Thank you! You too!
You seem so honest , I’m going to share this with my friends who are in the same profession.
During the pandemic 😷 from
What I have heard so far, practice owners have made a lot of money (tax payers ) the unethical way while associates have suffered financially and have been asked to work long hours , while practice owners are scamming the system and contribute the least .
No wonder none want to be a NHS bound servant .

Thank you so much for doing this, it’s so helpful. As a second year it is all so taboo and didn’t really have a clue going forward!
Thanks Rosie, glad it was helpful! Where are you studying?
At UoB!
@@rosieboulton6395 Ah great place! Lovely little train station 😂
Thank you for braking it down, really interesting. Medical professionals are quite underpaid in most countries, I guess. As a vet with 4 years of experience in UK I earn 31k a year, new grads usually get around 24-28k. And nurses are paid even less (both in human and vet medicine)
Vets have a tough ride, training is long, work experience is long - but they tend to love their jobs!
Beautiful 😍 comment! Hello Julia how are you doing today I hope that you are enjoying the weather conditions?

Good luck, you got this 💪🏾
Hi! Your (Indian) American counterpart from across the pond. Great video, I was curious how doctors are paid in European nations, especially UK, and your video broke it down well. I am beginning residency next year and I think my salary is actually pretty similar to what a junior doctor makes in the UK. However, medical student loans and attending salaries are quite different between UK and US, so it would be interesting to compare those.
Hello from across the pond Neel! That’s interesting, I’ve always though that doctors in the US earned more - when does the pay start to increase? And how do the student loans work there? Nice to meet you 👋
Damn I feel for you bro you work hard and get robbed.im a paralegal in law,I take home 2300 pounds and I save ,1k a month.
That’s cool to hear though
What a nice Doc. Very polite and transparent.
😁😁
You are the first person to share with us his salary. You are amazing Doctor! Thanks i will share and like the video
Thanks Ayan, appreciate it
GP Registrar ST3 here. I know how it feels. And yet people see us and think we are swimming in money. Most of us are in it because we are passionate about saving lives, no more no less. The deductions are mental .
Thanks for the comment, agreed!
Wow this is quite similar. I am a Band 7 pharmacist in the NHS (have been in the NHS for 5 years now) and looking to retrain into medicine. Didn't realise there were so many additions to the pay! Thanks for this 👍
No problem, thanks for watching! And good luck for the retraining
Very informative video bro :). You are doing wonderful job of serving people.
I wish I could also. But I strongly believe you deserve more. I wish govt can introduce different tax rates ( because it is not revenue generating service) for Doctors to reduce the cuts.
Wish you best of luck.
Thanks Ravi
The government has been squeezing and cutting doctor pay the last 13 years! Absolutely appalling, 15% pay cut in real terms(inflation since 2010). Plus student loans. Dear future doctors, medicine is no longer a high paying job! Your pay will be cut even more in ten years. Go into engineering and finance, pay is increasing year on year and isn’t controlled by the UK government.
It's a bit late for me to change now but appreciate what you're saying Hassan!
I honestly feel that healthcare professionals should have certain expenses taken care of. The amount of work you do and the toll it takes on the person is extreme. Thanks for sharing. Would be interesting to know what you plan to do financial to secure yourself. As it must be tempting to splash out and enjoy your hard earned money?
Some things can be frustrating, like paying £30-50 per month to park at hospital, extortionate hospital food if you wanted to buy lunch etc.
Generally I try and put money aside each month into an ISA, also we just bought a flat (still in the process) so that’s where our invested money is headed! I also spend way too much on kit for CZcams (lol)
Overpaid.
Very straightforward info bro keep going
Thanks Aman
Thanks for being so open. Great video. It’s about what I thought ST1 would be. If you go down the Consultant route (or GP route which I don’t think is that intellectually taxing) then it’s a worthwhile profession
Thanks for watching Kim, got a video coming up in the next week or two about the highest paid doctors in UK so keep an eye out for that, I think you’ll like it!
Kiran Morjaria Thanks Kiran. I look forward to that. My Dad was a Consultant in Pathology. He used to do 12 hour days and go in 7 days/week. I think it was a prestigious role many years ago but not anymore.
Wow you’re very brave.🙏🏽👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks!
1:35 “I did 173 hours this week” wow that’s 25 hours a day! you’re an extremely hard worker
Thanks 😂
Whats the explanation then? You obviously didn't work 173hrs a week......?
I think it’s a month
@@scotland369 It is based over a month, he clearly explained this as his monthly wage slip, but said week by accident. No need to jump down the poor guys neck.

Thank you for not circling around unnecessary words and for showing us straight facts in a small video. (Many people get seizures while discussing their salary . I get it , it's your personal thing but if you are going to talk about it then be very clear or just don't mention the topic at all. Don't tease us with your words like "it depends" , " average")
Your man of true words bro.

Thanks man, I was trying to be as open and transparent as possible by giving actual numbers so I’m glad that it came through. This comment means a lot to me dude, because this video did take a while to make and edit so it makes that time worthwhile 💪🏾
Excellent breakdown ✨💫

Is this the productivity doctor your talking about aka wasteman
Bro certain doctors in india earn 3 times this and i am not talking about the good or the great ones. I am a doctor (cardiac) and i earn more . Just saying u guys deserve more for the effort you put in week after week. Loved the content btw.

I dont think so, this is entry level salary
In india doctors get paid peanuts right?
Overpaid.
Thank you for a clear cut outline much appreciated as a 3rd medical student studying EU lol
Awesome!
Appreciate your humbleness . Im studying medicine in Asia
Thanks Bihara!
Great video, though it's also worth pointing out millions of British workers are on £8.91 an hour and taking home £300 a week to pay for all these public sector wages, and their gold plated pensions. There does need to be some perspective here.
Yeah I agree completely, I'm not complaining or saying it's too much/little, just documenting and informing people!
I knew this all along, wanted to be a doctor, studied medicine very , very hard , even excelled in my classes but really dont know why I left all this in the middle, and became a financial analyst (I've always been good at speculations), looking in the retrospect, I think medicine was good as a hobby, but not much so as a profession.
Really interesting story, thanks for sharing!
So you became financial analyst after completing medicine?
@@stupidrahul9912 Yeah, left the medical classes after two years , did FRM and CFA (till level 2) ,

Glad you liked it! Thank you
Hey A I D, I want to prepare for USMLE in F2 or F3 so I would like to ask is it even possible? Could I find the time for it?
Hey Mr Orange, for sure you can find time for it. Especially if you have a primary care job in FY2 but even in hospital you have plenty of time. In FY3 you can set your own work schedule so factor in time for USMLE revision. Exciting that you're planning on going to America!
@@Kiran.Morjaria That's good news, thanks for letting my know.
@@mrorange3529 No worries at all man! Thanks for watching the channel
I feel so bad I earn more than he does now and I work in a bank. The world is actually sick the fact docs and nurses don’t get paid what they should but a banker gets shit loads
as a juniour docter you get paid less but once you become consultunt you make £80,000+
@@drborristrumpjrvii2956 That’s only after around 15 years of education and training though so the earliest you can be a consultant is around 34. Not so great when you realise bright potential medical students could easily become top investment bankers or barristers and make that kind of money in their mid 20s
It would be interesting to see what you’re on Beebuz, maybe you need to make a video! Thanks for the comment 👋
Amazing, it’s more than I thought but the taxation ensures that it’s not enough, it never will be, thank you for saving lives
Thanks for watching and commenting, it supports the channel!
thanks for being honest and paying your own self, that was the take away for me lol
Lol!
6:18 it's more than useful 😁
Thank you!
As a potential medical student, this genuinely seems so little for the amount of work that goes in to get into med school and complete it.
I would love to watch a video on locum work and how that works; are you able to specialise whilst working in locum?
I have been in locum buisness for 9 years now. Government cracked down on locums since 2017 to squeeze more money out of them compared to even normal doctors.
@Rosy Rosy, If you like money either move to UAE, America or Australia as the Doctors earn ridiculous salaries. UAE is tax free by the way.
@@boomerang4918 reality is many local graduates are leaving country. So it is not a bad choice for Uni but NHS need revolunization to survive next 10 years which is unlikely to happen. Consultants Salaries has not been increased by a single penny, let alone 1% like nurses👏👏👏🌈, since 2008. Despite huge inflation and pound falling from 2 US dollars to 1.3. It fell in sharply after brixet from 2 to 1.6. Many people say this good for exporting buinesses. How about if you work for the government?!!
Hey, check out the channel I've got a few videos about being a locum doctor & how the works!
Really? Earning £50k in the UK 3 years out of uni is little? With the potential to be on £100k + by the time you are in your late 30s? Show me another career with that sort of pay progression.
And you are worth every penny and more. Thank you for everything you do for the NHS.
Thank you
Overpaid.
Really informative. I am new to the system so just for clarification, is this pay slip based on 2016 contract?
Hey man thanks for the comment, yeah this is 2016 contract and I’m a GPST1 doctor
Blood tests should be routinely done for anyone suffering from symptoms and illness and then supplementation recommended. I have been to several GP’s trying to be cheap and tell me I don’t need a blood test. This is the most basic diagnostic tool. Then we have the referral procedure.... this is another painstakingly long process of even getting the GP to refer quickly
No, the most basic diagnostic tool is an examination by a skilled clinician. Over reliance on blood tests with mediocre positive/negative predictive values is a waste of resources and often generates more work.
@@gmurdock I hope you’re not a jobsworth GP commenting. A doctor giving a diagnosis or treatment plan without appropriate bloodwork, will be giving the patient an opinion and not facts. Furthermore they don’t even use optimal levels, they use “ranges” and if it’s on the extreme side of a range then they will take action, which is quite rubbish. You won’t get advice on optimal levels. Lastly I’ve had friends prescribed anti depressants when what they really had was a vitamin D level of 9, which is shockingly low. So I really don’t give a toss about “wasting resources/generating more work”
I work in sales and I earn alot more than that and definitely do less hours! I also don't have many GCSEs let alone a degree! Madness!
Thanks for the comment John, there’s definitely better things you can do than med if it’s just about the money - but great to hear how well you’re doing 😁💪🏾
Kiran Morjaria Its crazy how underpaid NHS staff are wether we're talking doctors or nurses. I understand that a lot of you go into the industry because you want to help people but as your saving lives, at the expense of your own personal lives and mental health, you deserve better financial remuneration because that 1% increase was just insulting IMO! As toxic as the sales industry is, it has allowed me to achieve a healthy work life balance where I'm even able to do voluntary work with vulnerable children and adults so I like to think I'm making a little difference in people's lives also. Thank u for everything you do ... particularly during the pandemic, the people appreciate you even if the government doesn't!

Considering the amount of hours, level of responsibility and expertise needed to be a doctor this is crap. So underpaid. I have so much respect for junior Doctors, junior doesn't mean less valuable you should be paid more. I struggled for 10 years with illness and it was junior doctor that crack it and a junior surgeon that operatated on me and I couldn't be more greatful to them both. They gave me my life back.
Thanks Lavendar
its better than no job. be thankful that people even have a job. millions of people lost their jobs due to the fake pandemic and 40% of small businesses will never open again. just thank god you have a job and not on the streets begging.
1:34 "... I did 173 hours, this week at basic pay"
Hours in a week: 168
I knew doctors were busy, but I never knew they were so busy, they worked more hours in a week than there ARE hours in a week.
he meant month, its a months payslip. Stop dragging the guy
Him say in a week 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 173/7=24.7 something telling me to no believe this guy but i have hugeeeee respect for all doctors and nurse .This guy in him age need more specialisation in medicine not youtube.
