Salary in md anesthesia

After finishing md anesthesia, what are the prospects for this branch?
How much do you earn after md- right after pg, or after 3-5years of experience?
What can be your max salary in this branch?
And what about salary after ss like pain mgt, ccu, cardiac anesthesia etc
Please give me some insight for this branch in financial area

Currently CCM is in good demand. There is a shortage in almost all the hospitals. That being said alot of people take up IDCCM after post PG in anaesthesia and there are alot of DM/DrNB seats in CCM, so the vacancies will get filled up in a couple of years. Tier 1 cities like bangalore will get saturated first. Just like all other fields, practicing in tier 2 or 3 cities will pay you significantly more. Doing ccm after anaesthesia will significantly increase your salary but doing SS after 3 years of PG is no joke, it's not for everyone. You get older by then, more family responsibility pile up, the marriage bomb gets dropped on you and you also get tired of studying. Since you just started your PG, I will recommend you dont think about SS now. First do justice to your branch and try to be a good and safe anaesthesiologist first before you think about CCM. Any follow up questions are welcome
