He was named the ‘sexiest doctor alive’ by People magazine, but Dr Mike says the perks of dating a doctor run deeper than sex appeal.

The second-year medical resident from New York told Daily Mail Australia that doctors are dedicated, committed and compassionate – and having a stethoscope only betters the cause.

The handsome doctor, who has more than one million followers on Instagram, spoke out after it was revealed by dating app Coffee Meets Bagel that single Australian women rate doctors as the most attractive male profession.

Coffee Meets Bagel, that launched in Australia in 2015, revealed single Aussies looking for love are particular about their future partner’s profession.

Single ladies listed doctors as their preferred profession, and while they’re endearing qualities are appealing, the big pay cheque could also be part of the appeal.

The average Australian GP can earn anywhere between $150,000 and $350,000 annually, close to five times the average full time wage of $74,724 before tax.

Following doctors were men who worked in finance, law, start-ups or marketing, which suggests women still seek the security of traditional high earning job roles from their male counterparts.

Dr Mike, who has been dubbed the real life McDreamy, said for him it was more important that a person was ‘passionate and motivated’ in their field, whatever that may be.

‘If they’re lacklustre, or not motivated or driven in whatever they choose to do at work, it translates in to their everyday life,’ he said.

And when it comes to planning the perfect date, the eligible bachelor said he is all about excitement.

‘The best date I’ve had would probably have to be one where I went hiking to a big mountain here in New York,’ he said.

‘My date surprised me, because I’m usually the one giving the tour and explaining how to do things but she was a very experienced rock climber and took me to the highest part of the mountain.’

Dr Mike said his worst dating experience saw him the victim of catfishing.

‘I was talking with somebody through the internet and exchanging photos and having long, in-depth life conversations,’ he said.

‘And when it came down to the time to meet it was a completely different individual.

‘They thought it would be cool or funny to play a joke on me.’
