The finely carved sculpture of the doctor, engraved in maple wood and painted by hand, is a statue crafted with the knowledge and experience of the expert sculptors of Val Gardena.
A physician or medical doctor, is a professional practitioner of medicine who is engaged in the promotion, maintenance or restoration of health through the examination, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of disease, injury and other physical and mental impairments.
Medical practitioners may concentrate their scope of practice on specific disease categories, patient types, and treatment modalities - known as specialties - or they may assume responsibility for providing continuous, comprehensive medical care to individuals, families, and communities - known as general practice.
Medicine practice demands both a detailed knowledge of the scientific and academic disciplines, such as both anatomy and physiology, that underlie disease and its treatment - the science of medicine - and a decent competence in applied practice - the art or craft of medicine.
The role of the physician, as well as the importance of the word itself, varies around the world. Degrees and other qualifications are very different, but there are some shared essentials, such as professional medical ethics that require doctors to be considerate, to be compassionate, and to be of good will to their own patients.
