What’s a typical locum tenens urologist salary?
It’s difficult to put an exact figure on locum tenens urologist salaries, as there are many factors that impact rates including location, years of experience, and the level of demand.
While perm urologists are more likely to be salaried, locum tenens urologists are independent contractors earning an hourly rate, which can vary based on which assignments they take in a year.
Furthermore, because locum tenens urologists are paid by the hour, the hours they work are directly reflected in their pay, while a salaried provider’s additional hours may not be reflected in their salary. Finally, paid time off and insurance may be reflected in the perm urologist salary structure, but locum tenens providers do have options when it comes to health insurance.
How does a urologist's salary compare against other physician specialties?
Urologists are the tenth highest-paid of all physician specialties, according to Doximity’s “Physician Compensation Report 2024.” They make a higher average annual compensation than gastroenterologists, anesthesiologists, and dermatologists.
