Long career, balanced life. Experienced hospital-based anesthesiologists often make more than $350,000 a year. Compared with other medical specialties, the pay for anesthesiologists is in the top 5%, says Dennis E. Kane, DO, the president of the American Osteopathic College of Anesthesiologists.
Because about 60 percent of anesthesiologist salaries fall between $200,000 and $450,000 per year, it is likely that the salary of a prospective anesthesiologist will fall within this range.However, geographical location and practice setting play a part in determining the salaries of anesthesiologists.s of 2011, anesthesiologists practicing in the South Central states of Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas reported the highest average income, $331,000. Those in the Great Lakes states averaged a close second, $328,000 per year.
