What is: physicians?

A physician - also known as doctor of medicine, medical doctor, or simply doctor - practices the ancient profession of medicine, which is concerned with maintaining or restoring human health through the study, diagnosis, and treatment of disease or injury. This properly requires both a detailed knowledge of the academic disciplines underlying diseases and their treatment - the science of medicine - and also a decent competence in its applied practice - the art or craft of medicine.
