Agreed with #2 answer, it depends on the Dr. if you're talking about a regular Dr. you go to for checkups and minor illnesses, they are called General Practitioners. Tooth Dr. = Dentist. Skin Dr. = Dermatologist. Allergy Dr. = Allergist. Spinal Dr. = Chiropractor. Nerve Dr. = Neurologist. There's SO many different types of Doctors!!

it really spends on the doctor, if it's a skin doctor, it would be a dermatologist, etc.
