just want to know who told u that they never get sick.lol
if u r really serious then I can tell u about a lot of doctors who died of cancer(the worst sickness)
and I can tell u also that doctors suffer more than anyone else becauseof what's known the medical students syndrome
they study a lot of illness and symptoms so there inside make them feel horrible if they have just a headache or stomachache.
and about the money they have,I can tell u that I ve chosen to study medicine to help people and to see a smile in an infant's face instead of tears.when u can help a poor patient even if u don't get money from him i m sure u will feel much much better than this feeling of money in ur hands
think about it again
I also want to say that even though I'm a medicine student and have large knowledge about deseases I don't take a lot of care of my health and I hate taking medications when i m sick.doctors just live as normal persons believe me

Huh, what -- -- -- Doctors do get sick, several centuries ago when I worked in a hospital all of the Optometrists wore glasses and several of the Cancer specialists were hoping to find treatment options for themselves and didn't you watch those ER episodes wherein Anthony Edwards character has a brain tumor?
Peace.....

two answers.
first, they're exposed to everything and build up immunity.
second, they do! Docs get sick. they just don't ever go to the doctor and it's a lot harder to call in sick when you're a doctor. doctors make the worst patients, too.

Physicians usually take better care of themselves than the general public because they have been educated about the risks of various diseases. They have also been educated about how to use asceptic technique and they wash their hands often. However, I've seen many physicians pick-up colds and other viral illnesses. As for serious illness, they contract that, too!

I would assume its because they wear gloves and sanitize there hands constantly...they also wear scrubs or coats to keep the possible sickness off there clothing. I bet they were really sick when they began there practice! They probably have grown immune to most of it!

Doctors have much higher immune systems from being around sick patients all day and their body learns how to fight off diseases. Also they constantly wash their hands.

People in the medical profession have more knowledge of the human body and how it works, more knowledge of nutrition and an established network of professionals to refer to if needed.

Off course they become sick. only you don't come to know..cause you only meet them when you need to take medicine and not when doctors need medicine.
