In this video I document every single detail of a junior doctor pay slip. At least to the extent that I've been able to understand the pay slip myself. This pay slip would look very different for a consultant or a fully qualified GP but for average folks like you and me, this video should be a good starting point. We work normal 8-5 shift and also work anti-social shifts (meaning, shifts which take you away from the time you'd have spent socializing or sleeping). All this gives us basic income and then some more. So after all that income combined, we discuss taxes, national insurance, pension and debts that are deducted from our income every month. Technically I don't even like to think of taxes as anything bad or a loss of my income. I have arranged my mindset in a way that the gross pay before taxes is just an imaginary number and I am never going to get that number simply. It's only when I would start a business that I would crib about my income being lost in taxes because every bit of that money was something I worked hard to earn from my clients (by quoting/negotiating/bargaining etc.). Such a concept doesn't apply to employees.

Hopefully you come out learning something about our pay slip as well as seeing how well you can expect to earn in your future years working as a doctor in the UK.

My name is Abhinav Kumar. I am a junior doctor (means any doctor who has not yet got the full license to practice independently, aka someone who is not yet a "Consultant") working in the UK. I did med school from India and got MBBS degree from Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore in 2020. Then I spent 2 years during COVID working on PLAB exams which are like USMLE but for the UK. I eventually got a job in the UK and now I am working full-time as a doctor, with YouTube on the side for fun and information sharing.
Thanks.
