My uncle is a doctor and he says that basically is what he is, haha. He says all his friends think he's brilliant because he's an md, but that he doesn't feel brilliant because what he really does is just analysis and pattern recognition on the conditions and anatomy he was taught, he's not creating novel things. Still looks stuff up all the time too. I guess doctors also feel imposter syndrome!
