What the pay looks like

The national median is $256,560 a year, and the bottom tenth start near $73,570. The wage survey does not count endocrinologists separately. It lumps them in with general internal medicine physicians, so this is the figure for that whole group. Endocrinology sits at the lower end of physician pay, near general internal medicine rather than near the surgical specialties, because there are few procedures to bill for.
