Primary Care Doctors saying NO to $191K/year

Primary care doctors do not typically start out at $191,000 per year. That comes after 4 years of undergrad plus 7 years of medical training, then many more years of working 12+ hour days 27 days a month to build a practice. Subtract 40% for taxes and a thousand or more a month for student loans and all of a sudden it doesn't seem like an exorbitant amount of money.
