Add article description

A physician, medical practitioner, medical doctor, or simply doctor, is a health professional who practices medicine, which is concerned with promoting, maintaining or restoring health through the study, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of disease, injury, and other physical and mental impairments.

(Unreliable data: It says the country with most physicians, China, has 1,862,630 physicians and 19.8 physicians per 10,000 people. That puts the population at 941 million, while the country actually has 1.4 billion people.)
