Vadybininkas is a term used in Lithuania to refer to a medical professional, specifically a doctor. The term is derived from the word "vadyba," which means "leadership" or "management," reflecting the role of a doctor in guiding and managing patient care. Vadybininkai are trained through a rigorous educational process that includes medical school, residency, and often additional specialized training. They are licensed to practice medicine and are regulated by the Lithuanian Medical Council.

The role of a vadybininkas encompasses a wide range of medical specialties, including but not limited to internal medicine, surgery, pediatrics, and psychiatry.

The profession is highly respected, and vadybininkai are often seen as trusted advisors and caregivers. Their work is essential in maintaining the health and well-being of the Lithuanian population.
