    i'll go for the Pilots, not because i'll be one soon...but i think that pilots save many lives more than any profession not only Doctors.allow me to explain

    Well, to save a lives that mean you must have danger threatening those lives.
    so passengers in normal flights are not in danger.airliners make sure of that by employ high trained pilots ,do regular maintenance to ensure the safety.

    so what is the pilot's job and how we save lives!!

    we have similarity with doctors in saving lives..both pilots and doctors deal with two kinds of danger that threatening lives in our hands .

    1-emergencies:
    pilot is 99.99% of his time is just a glorified bus driver
    0.01 % of his time is to deal with emergencies to save 100-800 souls
    ( A380 can carry 800 persons)

    see capt sully ,this man every one can call him a bus driver before what he did now he is a hero after saving his plane
    doctors do save lives in case of emergencies in ER ..too

    2-eliminate dangers situations :

    doctors can discover deadly disease hidden inside patients if not diagnosed or treated well by medications or operation they will kill those who have them.
    doctors do this all the time..

    now for us pilots we have bunch of dangers that we deal with..
    1-weather (storms ,wind shears. fog. nasty crosswinds.....that required skill, timing and precision to fly safely .)

    Let's face it, landing an airplane with 200-800 people in the middle of a thunderstorm with 205 foot ceilings is just not newsworthy unless the plane is on fire or missing a wing

    2-Air Traffic controllers those guys help us to have safe sky but they can case real danger.
    in an airport the air traffic controller did a fatal fault by giving permission to two planes to land on the same runway opposite to each other,one of the pilots noticed that and clarify the mistake to the controller, if he did not do that a real disaster could happen .

    i have a lot of danger situations that pilots saved a lot of lives in it ,,

    we pilots have a lot of normal routine flights but once in a while we have some dangers that can cause disasters if ignored that is why we have crashes..not only because emergencies but because dangers not avoided or treated by pilots...and those dangers are not frequent each flight but once a pilot discover and eliminate them he saves his life and 100-800 souls :)
