Who Earns More Between A Professor And A Medical Consultant by Nobody: 7:59pm On Apr 20, 2016
I'm just wondering.
Who earns more between this two people both at entry level and at the long run?
And who has a better chance of societal and political recognition in terms of appointment.

A medical consultant earns far more than a proffesor in almost all countries of the world. In the united states, an entry level post resident doctor makes from $180k to $500k per annum depending on specialty while even the top proffrsors who are dean of colleges hardly make above $130k.
In nigeria,an entry level government consultant makes about 700k montly excluding outside consultations while a new proffessor make about 430k.
This difference is quite understandable since doctors are quite functional.people who also bring in money for the facilites and also impart knowledge on students while proffesors only impart knowledge and hardly bring in any money to their universties.
Nigeria doctors are one of the most poorly paod in the world that is why we are losing them by thousands to better paying countries like the us,uk,saudi arabia and now even namibia and botswana where they are in very high demand.

I think consultants earn more because they hardly work in just one hospital. The can work in many hospitals at the same time and they have consulting days for each hospital.
And their pay is very high.

A medical consultant can also be a professor. Your question isn't clear.

What do you mean by entry level for a professor?

Or do you mean a lecturer at entry level and when he eventually becomes a professor and a medical officer at entry level and when he becomes a medical consultant?

Can you reframe it so that you could get better response from Nairalanders.

A medical consultant with experience earns more than a teaching professor unless if the prof is into other consulting jobs.However,a professor has the advantage of been appointed into government political positions like advisers etc than a medical consultant.

Most medical consultants are into private consulting and also consult for international bodies like who and so many ngos.....there is hardly a way a prof can earn better that even a new medical consultant
Re: Who Earns More Between A Professor And A Medical Consultant by sandraokosun: 6:57am On Apr 21, 2016
i dont know how much these two earn but a ward councillor earns more than them. This remind me of a marriage reception i went to and the speaker of assembly was chairman when their was profs, etc plus the groom dad was a prof.
mr speaker is just a street nigga that barely went to sch, when the speaker was about to give chairman speech he acknwoledge his s.sa and kegites and left the profs, in his words he said "these days everybody claims to be a prof cos of how easy it has become and that he would investigate the claim"

Why do you ask?
Re: Who Earns More Between A Professor And A Medical Consultant by 3ice: 7:02am On Apr 21, 2016
A medical consultant is seen as somebody who has huge experience in medical line (May equally be a professor) and renders services to certain hospitals.. And he/she charges per hour or per patient etc. The medical consultant earns well, but a professor can earn bigger which is dependent on the professor's area of specialization. For instance a professor in Elect Engineering rendering services to the Telecom, A professor of Petroleum Engineering rendering services to Shell, Mobil, Chevron etc.

The professors who dont go height are professors who dont find their field lucrative and end their careers in the teaching field or serve as employees in organisations which has demand for their level of ideas in that department.
This is for long run case.

For entry level case: Both can earn same because of their level of experience and qualification.

I concord with your explanation
