What are the Easiest Doctors to Become?
While the term “easy” is relative, some academic programs for becoming a doctor have fewer requirements than others and thus require less time and effort.
We’ve compiled a list of the most easily obtained types of doctors below:
1. Family Medicine
2. Pediatrics
3. Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
4. Psychiatry
5. Anesthesiology
6. Emergency Medicine.
Family Medicine
Family medicine practitioners are trained in pediatrics and adult care (including gynecology and gastroenterology) so that they can treat every member of the family.
Their work involves comprehensive care and requires an understanding of most ailments.
Family medicine doctors are typically more involved with office-based work (‘well’ and ‘sick’ visits) than hospital-based work.
Psychiatry
Psychiatrists diagnose and treat mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders as well as substance abuse disorders.
Diagnosis typically involves conversations with patients and common treatments include psychotherapy and medication.
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
Physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R) physicians work with patients with physical impairments or disabilities (from disease, condition, or injury) to improve their functionality and quality of life.
PM&R uses physical therapy and pain management and attempts to avoid surgical operations.
Pediatrics
Pediatricians focus on children exclusively.
They are concerned with the variety of physical, mental, social, and behavioral health factors that affect children until age 18.
Pediatricians must understand the typical development of children to ensure that their patients are developing healthily.
Pathology
Pathologists focus on disease and the ways that disease affects the body.
They are often heavily involved with lab work and analysis of samples from patients.
Pathologists aid physicians in other specialties in their diagnosis of patients and are often involved in treatment regimens.

Internal Medicine (Categorical)
Internal medicine is solely concerned with adults and adult health issues. Internists are physicians who prevent, diagnose, and treat diseases and conditions that affect any part of the adult body.
They help with health maintenance, disease screening, and frequently refer patients to other specialists.
In conclusion, people argue that a general practice doctor is probably the easiest doctor to become.
Despite the fact that students must complete four years of medical school and one or two years of residency, this is the bare minimum of education for medical doctors.
