Doctors and Mathematician's contributions

Doctor: The Middle East contributed a lot to the Islamic world.  The Muslims made important advances in medicine.  Diseases spread constantly so the job of a Doctor was a very important role in the Islamic world.  Muslims had the first hospitals and started experimenting with different medicines. 

Mathematician:  The Middle East invented the 1-9 numerical system.  This helped because they were using Roman numerals before and they were hard to work with.  This was the biggest contribution.  The Muslims also used algebra which was also very important
