People who offer medical advice?

What are the people who offer medical advice in articles for news pages (Netscape, MSN, etc.), called? How difficult is it to land a job like theirs, compared to a job in a laboratory?People who offer medical advice?
Professionals who offer medical advice are usually medical doctors (M.D.). First they attend a university to earn their Bachelor of Science degree (4 yrs.), then are accepted to medical school (4 more yrs.), then an internship (1 yr.) and a residency (2 yrs.). If you go on to specialize, you are looking at several more years of specialty training in that field (surgery, neurosurgery, psychiatry, etc.).





A doctor of Family Practice is a general practioner, who has earned an M.D. degree.





Best wishes.
