You must understand what you are doing well and get to know your patients. A doctor should be able to make a patient feel better as psychology has been proven to improve a person's medical condition. On the other hand, he must also be able to keep a patient and his family members at ease during the sessions. A successful doctor can also juggle family and work. He should always be ready for any emergencies and never stop learning about his profession. A good doctor is always there for his patients. He should always be reachable and on time for his appointments so as to never keep the patients waiting.

The Hippocratic Oath has been updated by the Declaration of Geneva. In the United Kingdom, the General Medical Council provides clear modern guidance in the form of its 'Duties of a Doctor' and 'Good Medical Practice' statements. Hence the doctor should follow the letter and spirit of the principles enunciated in Good Medical Practice.

There is no 'must have' to qualities. Also 'good' and 'successful' are relative terms. Anyone, with any personality type can do the work needed to become a physician. The hard part is getting into a medical school. And if you can do that, you already have the ability to get through it.

A good and patient hearing of the patient so as to make believe the patient that the doc has understood all what the patient wanted to convey about his ailment. The treatment part comes only next, in most of the cases.

A keen mind for continuous learning and discovery. Ability to establish trust with patients, so they believe you are truly concerned about them and are making decisions in their best interest, rather than those of an insurance company or whatever.

If you're old there are a number of online communities support groups for mature students interested in medicine as a second career. Google for what is in your area/region.

These are all pretty good answers, but ask your doctor or a doctor you know. If you haven't experienced it, then how do you really know?
