Isn't it a bit dodgy that doctors call what they do 'practice'?

Why do they call it that?

Answer #1

One of the definitions of the word ‘practice’ is ‘The exercise of a profession’.

Answer #2

Yeah, you “practice” your profession. In a sense it is also humility. Because you’re admitting that no matter how much you learn in school, you’re still getting better and better each day through practicing what you learned.
