how much do doctors make in a year?
<answer> A doctor makes $187,000 a year. <context> According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) the median doctor salary in the U.S. is $187,000. That’s an incredibly misleading figure. To assume that all doctors make about $187,000 a year leaves out the fact that most orthopedic surgeons make about $413,000 and cardiologists make around $350,000.
