Doctors can work in a variety of locations. While hospitals are a standard setting, depending on your specialty, you may work in a smaller clinic or even start your own practice. You may also find yourself working at a school as an on-campus doctor, teaching, or even working somewhere out in the field, like a ship doctor or in an organization like Doctors Without Borders. As a doctor, especially a general practice doctor, you can find yourself providing treatment in a lot of different places. If you’re providing health care in a clinic or private practice, you may work semi-regular office hours. However, in a setting like an emergency room, you may work overnight hours or on the weekends.
