Do doctors take a breake

Answer 1

Obviously it depends on a myriad of things, including what exactly you mean.

All doctors will usually have some time in which to eat throughout the day. For GPs this is usually a set time because their day is very structured. For hospital doctors it will most likely be at whatever time is convenient although there is usually no precise time. Quite often there are afternoon lectures/teaching in hospitals and this serves as an opportune time to have a bite. Occasionally when it is very busy you may have to forego any break at all during the day but this would be discouraged since this would be detrimental to your own health.

Answer 2

Yes. They are human and have the same bodily functions as anyone else. A surgeon would likely use the toilet before scrubbing up to operate on the next patient. A very lengthy surgery would employ multiple surgeons, and thus if a surgeon has to be excused while they use the toilet and prep for surgery again, others can cover.
