I am a USA citizen with MD degree. I am currently finishing up my residency in Family Medicine (3rd year) in USA and will be USA Board Certified before the end of this residency (insha Allah). Although I can easily practice as a physician here in USA, I am very interested in practicing in Madina, Mecca, or Jeddah after the residency for religious reasons. I have no idea what the salaries are like there. Can someone please shed some light on this for me?

I have no clue about pay, but maybe see if hospitals would give salary lists online?? In Jeddah look for IMC (International Medical Center, Saudi General, or GNP as those are thee 3 I hear western expats use the most.

As an American in Jeddah I would love to be able to go to an American trained doctor who also had English as their first language. It would eliminate a lot of confusion and language idioms a native speaker uses vs a non native.
