A wordsearch where the key words are different types of doctors.

There are 4 main types of doctors in the NHS: General Practitioners (GPs), Medical Doctors, Surgeons, and then people who have done a PhD. This wordsearch focuses on the patient-treating type of doctor, rather than the academic kind!

A General Practitioner is the doctor most of us have had the most interaction with. They are well trained to know a little bit about a lot of problems, and are the first port-of-call for patients with less serious problems.
Medical doctors specialise in internal medicine - they normally specialise in a part of the body (e.g. cardiologists specialise in the heart) or illness (e.g. oncologist specialise in cancer). If the doctor is an ‘-ologist’, they are a medical doctor.
Surgeons do the slicing and dicing! They are in the operating theatre, completing the surgeries. Like medical doctors, they will specialise in a particular type of surgery or doing surgery on a particular part of the body.

The keywords included in the word search are:
EMERGENCY MEDICINE (the doctors in an A&E department)
GENERAL PRACTICE (your local GP!)
PAEDIATRICS (specialise in children)
DERMATOLOGY (specialise in skin)
CARDIOLOGY (specailise in hearts)
PSYCHIATRY (specialise in mental health)
OBSTETRICS (specialise in pregnancy)
NEUROLOGY (specialise in brains and brain structure)
RADIOLOGY (specialise in interpreting medical images to diagnose patients, e.g. looking at what an x-ray shows)
