Not only do they practice, they also only give their opinion.

No, not really. At least they have the appropriate medical experience (that is, uni and training on the job) to know what they're doing. I just take the word "practice" as an indication that they are always learning - after all, people learn throughout their lives and doctors especially need to keep up-to-date on recent developments in their field.
It is, however, unnerving that there is a lot of incompetence and lack of thorough relevant knowledge in "medicine" nowadays.

A bit, yes. On the other hand, no one ever 'finishes' learning so
a practice is a way of saying they're never going to be perfect.
Or in doctor mentality; not perfect 100% of the time - only 99.9% of it. ;)

Now that you mention it... yes.
My mother-in-law was really nervous seeing a doctor in Australia at his surgery. I had to explain to her that it meant his office. It didn't help that his name was Dr. Butcher.
