Sims 4: Become a doctor - how it works
In "The Sims 4" your Sims can become a doctor. However, this only works if you have the add-on "To work". With the "Dogs & Cats" expansion, your Sims can also run a veterinary clinic. In this practical tip, we will show you how your Sims can pursue these careers.
This is how your Sims becomes a doctor
In order to be able to start your doctor's career in "The Sims 4", you need the extension "To work". Then your Sims can easily become a doctor. That's how it's done:
- Click on your Sim's cell phone.
- Select the house icon and click "Find a job".
- In the window that opens, select "Doctor" and confirm by clicking on the check mark.
- Tip: You can also search for a job on the PC. Simply click on the computer and then on "Find a job".
Tips for working as a doctor in "The Sims 4"
Ideally, your Sims will be focused as soon as it gets to work. Working hours are Monday and Tuesday and Friday to Sunday from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Your Sim earns 18 Simoleons an hour. It is best if your Sim already has the logic and dexterity.
- Your Sim can advance to senior doctor in ten levels and then earn 280 Simoleons an hour.
- You can actively participate in your Sim's day-to-day work and take on various tasks in the hospital to be promoted.

This is how your Sims becomes a veterinarian
With the "Dogs & Cats" expansion, your Sims can run a veterinary clinic. You will then work as a veterinarian, but this is not a fixed career with transportation options. In principle, the veterinary clinic works in a similar way to retail. Your Sims need seed capital because you have to buy the clinic. You also have to manage the employees and take care of the advertising. As the owner of the veterinary clinic, you acquire the "veterinarian" ability.
- To open a veterinary clinic, click on the till symbol at the bottom right of the screen. Select "Buy a veterinary clinic".
- In the veterinary clinic you can examine the animals, make diagnoses and treat the animals - just like with the "Get to work" extension. You can also hire and manage veterinarians.
