Allopathic Physicians (M.D)

Duties and Responsibilities.

Allopathic doctors are also called as medical doctors and are responsible for diagnosing and treating the conditions that affect the human body. An allopathic doctor diagnoses the body conditions using tests and examinations and prescribes medications to their patients based on their findings. Allopathic doctors provide care for specific groups of people like people above the age 65 and for children. Allopathic doctors can work in any one of the specialties within their profession like gynecology, surgery, psychiatry or general medicine.

Salary:

 The average annual salary for an allopathic physician varies by specialty. In November 2009, the average annual salary for general practice physicians without a specialty was between $50,868 and $179,510, according to Payscale.com.

Education:

Doctors typically receive a four-year bachelor's degree and then attend medical school for four more years, after which a three- to eight-year residency is required to practice medicine independently. Allopathic physicians must pass state medical licensing exams before beginning their residency and usually are required to pass a second exam at the end of their residency to gain certification in their field of specialty.

No I would not like to be a allopathic Physician because it’s like 8 years of studying and I would like to work and study something more easier!
