A newly graduated doctor in Colombia in 2026 is typically looking at roughly COP 3.5 million to 5.8 million per month for junior or entry-level roles, with a broader entry-level annual range around COP 122.2 million to 159.9 million before taxes and deductions.

What that means in practice

The most directly relevant 2026 source I found puts the overall average doctor salary in Colombia at COP 15.67 million per month and notes that entry- level doctors usually earn below that average. For a brand-new graduate, the realistic starting point is usually much closer to the entry-level range than the national average for all doctors.

Useful context

Several factors can move the number up or down:

  • Public vs. private employer.
  • City and region.
  • Shift type and workload.
  • Whether the doctor is a general practitioner or already has specialization training.

One forum-style report also mentions offers for newly graduated doctors around COP 3.5 million for part-time and COP 5.8 million for full-time , which is consistent with the entry-level range above but should be treated as anecdotal.

Clean answer

If you want a simple estimate: expect about COP 4 million to 6 million per month as a new graduate , with some jobs below or above that depending on location and employer.
