Doctors are said to do their best whenever they are in Primary care fields of general and family medicine, internal medicine, and general pediatrics. Many doctors these days are salaried employees of group medical practices, clinics, or health care networks. Doctoral studies take a long time but still it pays a lot. Physicians serve a fundamental role in our society and have an effect upon all our lives. The people who tell you what illness you are suffering from and will also give you medicines are doctors. Diagnosis of doctors is based on checking out patients. Patients are given thorough counselling on diet, hygiene, and preventive health care. The two types of doctors are known as the M.D. or Doctor of Medicine and the D.O. or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine. The treatment by both M.D.s and D.O.s is identical but the differences with D.O.s have more specialization with body's musculoskeletal system, preventive medicine, and holistic patient care Practicing general and family medicine, general internal medicine, or general paediatrics is what most of the M.D.s do. Primary care physicians tend to see the same patients on a regular basis for preventive care and to treat a variety of ailments.

Giving much more attention to body organs is done by those who practice general internal medicine. You will notice that General pediatricians are the ones who look after the child health. Sometimes specialist's opinion is asked for by the general doctors. D.O.s do not always take up allopathic physicians and instead are always found in allopathic physicians.

The physicians have always been expected to work for long hours. A quarter of the full time physicians work for as long as 60 hours or more in a week. It is but a truth that doctors have to move from their home to the hospital very often. When they work with groups or health care organizations which have other doctors they get some rest.

When they work together in teams they can coordinate among themselves the care for patients. They are less independent than solo practitioners of the past. Physicians who are on call deal with many patients' concerns over the phone, and may make emergency visits to hospitals.

A lot of years are put into the studies of a physician. 16 years is the maximum it takes to be able to get done with all the studies as well as internship to become a full fledged physician. There are a few schools that can be found where the undergraduate school and the medical school can be combined and will only take 6 years.

Physics, biology, mathematics, English, and inorganic and organic chemistry has to be studied by them at an under graduate level. Humanities and social sciences are also studied sometimes. For the sake of experience some students have even tried volunteering at local hospitals or clinics.
