What radiation oncologists make

Job Bank does not give radiation oncologists a figure of their own. Its page for radiation oncologists uses the figure for all medical specialists: a median of about $311,000 a year (low $126,000, high $607,000) for 2023 to 2024. Most doctors in Canada bill the provincial health plan, and published billing figures are gross payments before office and practice costs, not take-home pay. Most radiation oncologists in Canada are paid a salary or a fixed annual amount by a cancer centre, so there is little practice cost. It varies by province.
