I' m not in the US, so no crazy salaries on both sides. The average doctor probably makes more but the best programmer makes way more than the best doctor. However with long hours, night shifts, pressure etc you have to enjoy what you do or burn out early.

Is this about the doctor or the programmer?

In the Netherlands I wouldn't expect any night shifts, or long hours as a programmer.
Both, obviously.
