Job Bank's vascular surgeon page pools all surgeons: a median of about $419,000 a year in gross billings, low $144,000, high $767,000. Gross is before overhead. CIHI (Canadian Institute for Health Information) puts the average gross payment for surgical specialists at about $556,000 (2023 to 2024). Vascular surgeons work mostly in hospital, so overhead is lower than a clinic-based doctor, and long operations and heavy call push billings up. Net is roughly $300,000 to $700,000. Varies by province.
