Plastic surgeons physicians? Depends how the ply their trade! If they use their skills to help badly disfigured people then yes if they use them to make lots of money by making woman in funny lookin mannequins then no.
I dont know about the States here in the UK it takes about 6 years to qualify as a doctor and then you can specialise in the field of your choice.
My girlfriend in a Med student she is in her final year of med school which is a 4 year course she then will have to choose a specialized area in medicine which can take a further 2 years.
She is choosing Pediatrics i guess she loves kids

Furthermore, regular ol' physicians don't get paid a whole lot, if money is important to you. If money is really an issue to you, be a surgeon, you greedy bastard. Though I must warn you, my uncle is a surgeon (uh... what's it called... the thing where they fix people's arteries and veins and such up so they don't have heart attacks), and he's literally almost never home. Works something like six to nine, almost every day.
wheather you agree or not that plastic surgeons are "helpful" doctors, they are physicians. They have to go through medical school and residency just like all of the the other doctors.they have to know just as much as all of the doctors as well. now, wheather or not they are doing it to help the people with their appearences or just out for the money(well who isn't these days?) that is merely an opinion.
