The word physician applies to a person who practices some type of medicine. Such medical practitioners are concerned with maintaining or restoring human health through the study, diagnosis and treatment of disease and injury, through both their area of knowledge of body systems, their diseases and treatment — the science of medicine — and their applied practice of that knowledge— the art or craft of medicine.
