What does a doctor do?

Question

Hi everybody,Could you tell me what the verb collocating with 'doctor' (/dentist/GP/etc.) is? This doctor belongs to a certain area (the desired verb should suggest it). Is there a verb to express it at all? For example:1. He is the doctor making service in this district.2. He is the doctor working in this district.3. etc.I really don't know the solution to this question (if any).Thanks for your answer(s) in advance.
