I was interested in doing a job in the healthcare profession but I am not sure what job just yet. I just wanted to know if there is a job that may include:
*Being able to prescribe medication.
*Treat physical injuries.
*Being able to read and interpret results e.g X-rays, ultrasounds etc.
It doesn't have to include all 3 and it can be roughly along the lines of this. I'm not sure if this is the work of a physician, nurse practitioner or another job. Any advice would be useful. Thank you!!

Doctor or nurse practitioner come immediately to mind, however, doctors have a much larger scope of practice
So would a nurse practitioner do all 3 tasks then?
Also, what other work would a doctor do along with these 3 tasks?
Thank you so much!!
