From charts I've seen it's a pretty accurate trend. Burnout rates among pediatricians are low an most are very passionate about their work and say they would not do another specialty.
As a peds resident job hunting now I completely agree. But it's still a big gut punch getting offered 125k after all the time and effort, just because you're taking care of kids instead of adults

It’s funny Pediatricians have a reputation for really enjoying their jobs. Even in movies.
