What the pay looks like
Median for the group
$414,010
Bottom tenth
$80,320
Top tenth
$655,320
Ear, nose and throat surgeons are not counted on their own. They sit inside a group called Surgeons, All Other, a mix of surgical specialties. In the 2025 federal wage survey that group's median is $414,010 a year, the bottom tenth earn $80,320 or less and the top tenth $655,320 or more. The figures cover the whole group and only surgeons paid a wage, so those who own part of their practice are missing.
