The President of Uruguay is also a practicing oncologist

He spends a morning a week in clinic:

At the clinic, which is affiliated with the country’Â’s best-known private hospital, Dr. Vazquez wears a white smock with his name embroidered on a pocket. His colleagues, men and women alike, greet him with a kiss on the cheek, as is the custom here, and address him as “Doctor” rather than “Mr. President.”
