Doctor

What does a Doctor do?

Not all Doctors do the same thing everyday. Doctor's schedules differ depending on the kind of medicine they practice. Some doctors work in an office, others in the hospital, and some in places you might not think of, like laboratories where they develop new medicines and research cures.

Most doctors work very long hours and have to be available for emergencies. These hours are typically spent seeing patients in an office-based setting, running tests as well as interpreting them, prescribing medicine or treatments, doing rounds in the hospital, making notes on patient's physical conditions, advising patients on how to stay healthy and talking to them about further treatment. They keep up to date by taking classes and regularly reading books and medical journals.

Surgeons will usually work two or three full days in the hospital operating room performing surgeries.

Doctors will also invest time completing administrative duties such as updating patient records, returning phone calls or dealing with various office issues.
