The noblest of all professions. Sacrifice at least 11 years after high school and incur $200,000+ debt in the pursuit of knowledge to care for you and your loved ones.
The physician spent four years in undergrad, four years in medical school, 3-7 years in residency, and then 1-2 years in fellowship before practicing.

To Put in simle terms, they're the heros of society. They sometimes don't get the respect the deserve for the long hours, 11 years of HARSH schooling and stress that they go through because of under-appreciative patients who bitch about the littliest things, but keep this is mind there are alot who appreciates the work that they do. Take it for me, i'm typing this right now because i'm grateful of them, and plus i was supprised there wasn't a good definition of their work there was just a stupid definition above me, but all in all they're heros of this planet.

Heroes = MD or DO. Medical Doctors go to school for over a decade and take on exorbitant debt to become competent leaders of the healthcare team. Pre-Med students must be at the top of their college class and do well on the 8-hour MCAT entrance exam as medical schools accept 1-4% of applicants and are actually brick and mortar as opposed to online. Med students study for 60-80 hours a week and take countless high-stakes exams including the Boards. Afterward, they are expected to work 80-100 hours a week as residents for meager pay before finally being an attending physician and continuing to work long hours. Their road is hard, but their calling is high.

A person who is miserable, overworked, and regrets every decision made after high school. Physicians are highly irritable, with frequent flashes of white hot rage. This is an outward symbol of their severe depression. Physicians often contemplate suicide, but usually due to family obligations they choose to remain a prisoner of the world they created. Physicians used to be happy people. Today they are miserable, just shells of the men and women of yesteryear.

"It's ok son, Jimmy's dad is a physician. That's how they express themselves."
