'der Arzt' and 'der Mediziner' can both refer to a person who has studied medicine. 'Arzt' is used in everyday language when someone examines, treats, or advises patients. 'Mediziner' sounds more general and somewhat more formal. It can also refer to a person in medical research, not only someone working in a practice or hospital. Learners may confuse the words because many 'Mediziner' are 'Ärzte'. When talking about an appointment or treatment, 'Arzt' is usually more natural.
