Why do you think they get divorced frequently? Could the significant factor be the irregular or long working hours for people in medicine?

Could just be that since you see a lot of physicians marrying physicians, you also see a lot of physicians divorcing physicians. Without actual data, it's probably very hard to quantify the real divorce rate.
That said I'm a university dropout, and she did a degree in computer science, before switching to become a physician.
I know a lot of CS people locally who are married to dentists and doctors. There are a lot of encounters between doctors, but my personal experience is that doctors marrying doctors (or other medical specialists) seem to get divorced quite frequently.
