How much do medical interns earn? (+ how to choose a PGI Hospital in the Philippines!)

[@jochelle_g]

Dang, I'm a nursing student in America so I'm really interested in watching these kinds of videos. It still surprises me how much money is worth in every country and how different it is. When you said med interns get 2000 pesos (around $40) I had to switch my brain a bit LOL med interns earn $3000 average a month here in the US average so that's around 150,000 pesos. Thanks for the informative video!

[@IanStaMaria]

Wow, that's a big amount for med interns in the US!

[@chowsta168]

@@IanStaMaria damn! how do u pay for food, rent, life in general with only 40$ a month?

[@later2058]

@@chowsta168 they dont. Most interns have to rely on their parents and family. Sadly.

[@rachelsy1807]

Aw Pls don't shout that. It will make them go abroad hopefully not. Sad Philippines 🥺

[@jochelle_g]

@@chowsta168 they don't, the culture's different so they can rely on family until they are able to be independent on their own even if that takes them 30 something years in life. Also, even then the things in the Philippines are a lot cheaper compared to first world countries.

Somehow as a 3rd yr med student now at ph The fact we get overworked and underpaid / not even paid at all just really makes me depressed Can you possibly make a video on how we as med students conquer depression/ self doubt especially when we see our peers who have major careers now? Thanks a lot
