Three types of physicians are mentioned- ''Chhadmachara'' (Pseudophysician or Quack), ''siddhasadhit'' (feigned physician) and ''jivitabhisara'' (genuine physician). In the ancient times, there were people practising medicine without appropriate knowledge about the science, Charak has mentioned the qualities of physician to whom we should rely upon for treatment and to keep away from the quacks and the dangers of getting treated from them, even loosing life.

[[Sutra Sthana]] Chapter 1 ([[Deerghanjiviteeya Adhyaya]]), verse 124<ref name=ref3/> states the qualities of good physician as, ‘one who examines the patient and in consonance with habitat, time, individual variations, applies appropriate medicine is best physician’. The medicine which can cure disease is best medicine and the physician who can give relief to the patients of their ailments is best physician. The wise person who aspires to be physician should acquire the qualities of physician, knowledge of science and also the practical knowledge of the diseases and medicine, to become life saver.
