Pediatrics pay on WeekdayDoc is up 14.1% vs. the prior quarter (through Sep 2026).
The cost-of-living index for Washington is 107.0 (US average = 100; BEA Regional Price Parities (2024)), so the posted ~$309k midpoint carries the purchasing power of roughly $288k in an average-cost state. 59.8% of Washington clinicians report burnout symptoms in WeekdayDoc's Burnout Index (2026-01 data).
Location & Logistics
Washington has no state income tax, which can significantly increase take-home pay compared to high-tax states. At the posted ~$309k midpoint, that is roughly $12k–$22k a year versus a typical 4–7% state rate.
