Average neurologist salary in 2022

$264,313

How does this year's salary for neurologists compare to other years?

The neurology shortage has been cast into stark relief by a combination of patient decline during the pandemic plus an industry-wide trend of physicians leaving the workforce at earlier ages, and not enough new neurologists entering it. Demand for qualified neurologists is outpacing the available workforce as labor shortages abound. Additionally, a trend of sub-specialization contributes to gaps in the neurological care that hospitals and practices can offer.
