What the figures suggest for Utah owners
BLS does not publish a state mean for dermatologists in Utah; avoid treating the missing figure as zero or as evidence that the role is absent. The published nurse practitioners mean of $137,060 provides a visible reference for that occupation only, not a substitute dermatologist benchmark. Across the four occupations shown, the highest published mean is nurse practitioners at $137,060, and the lowest is medical assistants at $44,760, a difference of $92,300.
Within the published support-role medians for Utah, physician assistant is highest at $134,740 and medical assistant is lowest at $45,360. Compare the physician assistant ($134,740), nurse practitioner ($130,920), and medical assistant ($45,360) figures with assigned work, supervision, appointment access, and expected collections.
The Utah OEWS table describes employee wage estimates and employment, not practice profit or owner distributions. Its physician assistant median is $134,740; that figure excludes benefits and does not establish a fair offer for a particular candidate.
