A doctor is a person who is licensed to practice medicine

A Doctor looks after the sick persons and prescribes
medicine that gives them reliefs. He/she is an important person. A doctor knows
how to treat and cure sick people. He also knows how to dress and heal wounds.
A doctor dedicates
his life to the service of the patients. He or she relives the sufferings and
pain of mankind. He cures them from diseases and illness. He strives to make
the life of others better and healthier.
The doctor works to prevent and spread epidemics. Every now
and then dangerous diseases grab the humanity. It is the doctor who finds the
cure. Sometimes it may take years of painstaking work and research to find the

beyond imagination. A damaged organ can be transplanted, in today’s medically
advanced world.
