"Jacek jest lekarzem."

Translation: Jacek is a doctor.

[PatrickKur5]

They ask for "doctor" and mean "physician"

[immery]

yes, lekarz=physician, doktor=doctor, but in Polish word "lekarz" is commonly used, while doktor keeps it's double meaning, but only as colloquial word.

[Glen624972]

So, would a woman with a PhD be "doktorka"?

[WarsawWill]

Just for interest's sake, for us Brits it's "doctor". We rarely use the word "physician"

[Jellei]

Added "physician".
