The average medical resident is earning $67,400 annually, according to Medscape’s 2023 Resident Salary and Debt Report (login required), an increase of 5% from the $64,200 they earned in 2022. Although the pandemic resulted in a couple years of stagnant growth for resident pay, this trend appears to have changed this year, with residents generally receiving higher pay.
