Physician
A physician is a person who practices medicine. The term "physician" is traditional and still commonly used in the United States, but in the United Kingdom and Australia the term isn't used - instead they are called a "doctor" (a term also used in the US). Often also called a "medical doctor". Related titles are "veterinarian", used for one who cures diseases in animals, and "biologist", used for one who studies the life sciences[?] in general.In most jurisdictions nowadays, physicians need government permission to practise their profession.
