Medecin est un nom masculin qui designe le professionnel de sante diplome. En francais, medecin et docteur sont souvent interchangeables en pratique, mais medecin est le terme professionnel officiel. La forme feminine medecin est invariable, bien que une medecin ou une femme medecin s'emploient.

Medecin generaliste (GP, general practitioner) s'oppose a medecin specialiste (specialist). Aller chez le medecin (to go to the doctor) est la formule la plus courante. Corps medical (medical profession) designe l'ensemble de la profession.
