What is the Latin root for physician?
The root for 'physician' is ultimately Greek, although we get the word via Latin.
The Middle Liddell dictionary definition of the Greek word φυσις (phusis) is 'The nature of a person or a thing, i.e the natural form or constitution...'
One who concerned themselves with this was a φυσικος (phusikos).
Latin used this word too, but transliterated it into their alphabet: 'physicus' and hence we get our word 'physician' - lit. 'one who concerns themselves with the nature of things'.
Latin more commonly used the word 'medicus' to mean 'physician' as we use the word today.

Credo is a Latin word meaning "to trust" (e.g. credit, credentials), but cardio comes from the Greek word καρδία, meaning "heart". Now, that didn't quite answer your question, but I'm doubt that, based on the definitions and morphology, they do actually come from the same root.
However, the Latin word for "heart" is cors, cordis, so one would imagine that both the Latin and Greek for "heart" have a similar etymology (at some point in the past).

Why the root words in Latin don't match up with the months?
Yes, the names of the months match their Latin roots. January comes from Janua for the outer door of a house. February comes from februum for 'religious purification'. March comes from Mars the war god. April comes from aperire for 'to uncover, open'. May comes from Maia, the mother of Mercury the winged messenger of the gods. June comes from Iunius, as the name of a Roman clan. July comes from Iulius, as the name of the Roman clan formed by the descendants of Prince Aeneas of Dardania and Troy. August comes from Augusta, the wife of a Roman Emperor. September comes from septem for 'seven', October from octo for 'eight', November from novem for 'nine', and December from decem for 'ten'. The reason for the names of the last four months is the Roman identification of March as the first month of their year, April as the second, May as the third, June as the fourth, July as the fifth, and August as the sixth.
