Pay ranges widely from country to country and from role to role. The lowest reported salaries in Peru sit around 124,400 PEN a year, while the very top stretches to 409,000 PEN. Everything on this page is in Peruvian sol (PEN, symbol S/ ), which lets you compare numbers like-for-like without worrying about exchange rates.
The numbers here are pulled together from official government wage data, large independent salary surveys, and aggregated worker-reported pay. Most reported salaries include the benefits that are common in Peru, such as housing or transport allowances, which is worth keeping in mind if you're comparing against a country where those are usually paid on top.
How much does a endocrinology physician make in Peru?
A typical endocrinology physician working in Peru brings home around 21,775 PEN a month before tax. Entry-level pay starts near 124,400 PEN, and the top of the ladder reaches roughly 409,000 PEN for the most experienced and specialised people in the role.
The wide gap between low end and top end reflects how much pay can vary inside the same job title. A junior endocrinology physician working at a small local employer earns very different money from a senior at a multinational. Skills, employer, city and years in the seat all push the number around.
How endocrinology physician pay ranges in Peru
A good way to think about salary in Peru is to look at the distribution rather than the headline average. Half of all endocrinology physicians in Peru earn less than 272,800 PEN a year, and the other half earn more. That middle number is the median, and it is usually more useful than the average for answering "is my pay normal here".
Looking at the quartiles fills in the picture. A quarter of earners take home less than 180,300 PEN (the 25th percentile), and a quarter clear 353,600 PEN (the 75th percentile). The middle 50% of endocrinology physicians sit somewhere inside that band, which is where the typical reader of this page probably lives.
The very lowest reported salaries sit around 124,400 PEN. The highest stretch to 409,000 PEN, though only a small fraction of earners ever reach that level. If you are deciding whether your own offer or current pay is reasonable, work out which of those four bands you would fall into and use that as your reference point.
Endocrinology physician pay by experience in Peru
Years of experience is the single biggest lever on pay for a endocrinology physician in Peru, ahead of education and almost any other single factor. The longer you have been in the role, the more your employer can trust you to handle complexity, mentor others and act independently, all of which command higher pay. The chart below shows how the typical endocrinology physician salary changes as you move through the career ladder.
- 0-2 Years148,300 PEN
- 2-5 Years+40% from previous207,700 PEN
- 5-10 Years+32% from previous273,300 PEN
- 10-15 Years+23% from previous335,100 PEN
- 15-20 Years+7% from previous357,300 PEN
- 20+ Years+9% from previous390,000 PEN
The single largest jump on the ladder is from 0 - 2 Years to 2 - 5 Years, where pay rises by about 40%. That is the point at which a endocrinology physician typically goes from "competent in the role" to "the person other people in the team learn from", and the market pays well for that step.
Endocrinology physician pay by education in Peru
Education lifts pay across almost every role, but the size of the lift varies enormously. The biggest premiums show up in licensed professions like medicine, law and accounting, where extra years of formal study open up seniority that isn't available without the qualification. The smallest premiums show up in skilled trades and creative work, where practical experience often beats academic credentials.
As a rough cross-industry guide for Peru: a post-secondary certificate or diploma adds around 17% over a high-school-only baseline. A bachelor's degree typically adds another 25% on top of that. A master's lifts pay a further 30%, and a PhD adds about 22% more in fields that value research-level qualifications. These are averages across many different professions, so the real number for your specific job could easily be twice as high or close to zero. The per-job pages below have the real numbers for individual roles.
Endocrinology physician gender pay gap in Peru
The gender pay gap is a stubborn feature of almost every labour market, and Peru is no exception. Male endocrinology physicians in Peru earn an average of 272,800 PEN a year, while female endocrinology physicians earn around 254,700 PEN. That works out to a 7% gap in favour of men, even when comparing people doing the same work.
A pay gap of this size has a real long-term cost. Over a typical thirty-year career it can add up to several years of pay, and it compounds through pensions, retirement contributions and bonus-linked stock. Some of the gap is explained by women being more likely to work part-time, take career breaks, or be steered toward lower-paying specialisations. Some of it is straightforward unequal pay for the same job, which is harder to defend.
