Physician Salaries

I'm a college student in the United States and will soon be going to medical school here, and was wondering what an average physician's salary would be for an American citizen in Dubai. I might be jumping the gun as it will be at least 8-10 years until I complete my medical training/residency and I ...

That is disappointing. A few clarification questions: When you are talking about salaries as 40K-50K, for example, is that AED/month? or USD/year? I know Dubai Healthcare City is scheduled to open soon with an affiliated Harvard Medical School teaching institution. Will this have any impact on salar...

Re: Physician Salaries

Physician's salaries are little bit more than Usa salaries BUT you almost pay no txes in Dubai so that is a plus Is this true? I am getting conflicting information. I read this in a different thread on this forum: 20K for a specialist is, sadly, quite normal in Dubai. The pay is, to say the least, ...

Are American conveniences readily available in Dubai?

I have considered moving to Dubai (or at least living there for several months) but I have lived in the United States my whole life and am very used to the lifestyle. So I was wondering if the things that I am used to here are readily available in Dubai. For example: How good are the grocery stores?...

Thanks for the quick responses! Those were for the most part exactly the answers I was hoping for :wink:

(And sorry for not searching...I'll be sure to do that next time.)

Are medical doctors really only paid 20K/month in Dubai?

I have had a lot of trouble finding concrete answers to this question in other threads so I thought I'd ask the blunt question: do medical doctors really earn such low salaries? In the US, $200K/year for a medical specialist is on the low end. Starting salaries for more competitive specialties are a...

Your hand seems a bit unsteady - you posted the same question twice. Sorry about that - I thought it was relevant to both forums. (And no, I'm not a doctor yet - just getting a head start, that's all) I just read this on the Emirates Hospital website: There are tons of doctors but few truly superb ...

I find it sooooo typical of an American to expect all their crap to be available, whatever happened to trying 'local' things!? I just find it really rubbish to want to move to a new place, but to expect everything from home to be readily available, I mean isn't half the fun checking out new things?...

Did you even read my post chocoholic? Where did I imply that the UAE was a third world country, or that I was unwilling to integrate and try new things? If you took the time to actually read what I had written, you would realize we actually agree for the most part. I want variety and I want to exper...

Naruto you should edit the title of this thread. Neither story is true.

Is there/will there be a Dubai equivalent of mapquest.com?

From what I understand, addresses in Dubai don't really have any organization to them and directions are sometimes difficult to understand. In the US, on a site like mapquest.com or Yahoo! Maps (or in a GPS Navigation equipped vehicle) just type in an address and you can get easy driving directions ...

I hope no one is offended by this, but this conflict reminds me of the scene at the end of "The Rock" where General Hummel (Ed Harris) pulls his gun on one of his mercenary soldiers who turned against him, after which the other three soldiers in the room all pull their guns on each other. ...

http://mk29.image.pbase.com/o4/93/329493/1/56427228.DubaiAerialsFeb06089.jpg Do you think the villas will be this close together on the other palm islands? Because this looks absolutely atrocious. Also, are they leaving any empty plots of land on the palm islands that people can buy? I'd imagine so...
