The Bible has a few references to doctors, but only names one, the Apostle Luke.

(Genesis 50:2) After that Joseph commanded his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father. So the physicians embalmed Israel,

(Matthew 9:12) 12 Hearing [them], he said: "Persons in health do not need a physician, but the ailing do.

(Mark 2:17) 17 Upon hearing this Jesus said to them: "Those who are strong do not need a physician, but those who are ill do. I came to call, not righteous people, but sinners."

(Luke 4:23) 23 At this he said to them: "No doubt YOU will apply this illustration to me, 'Physician, cure yourself; the things we heard as having happened in Ca·per′na·um do also here in your home territory.'"

(Luke 5:31, 32) 31 In reply Jesus said to them: "Those who are healthy do not need a physician, but those who are ailing do. 32 I have come to call, not righteous persons, but sinners to repentance."

(Colossians 4:14) 14 Luke the beloved physician sends YOU his greetings, and so does De′mas.

Also, the Bible mentions "Doctors of Law", among them a Pharisee named Gamaliel. These were not physicians, but those who were men highly educated in Jewish Law (the Apostle Paul was also one)
