They are, yes.
But to deny them any sort of compensation for their extra work seems counter-intuitive and also would probably lead to significantly less people becoming doctors. In fact, most people would probably get an easier job if they knew they were going to be paid the same no matter what -- why would they want to endure 8-10 years of college to get a job that has high demands and little to no compensation for those expectations? They might as well just do something simple and fun.
Unless of course you mean socialism is the better option (wherein doctors are paid more than the average guy at McDonalds, but don't have, like, 10 cars, two mansions, and three kids that got paid in to Harvard), in which case, I got no qualms there!
