If you want to make real money, you gotta buff your butt off.
And then You've gotta buy a bunch of resources
and then you've gotta mass produce buffs
and then you've gotta advertise your butt off
and then you will begin to make 2-7 mill a day
Find someone that produces a lot of Doc food, buy 10-100 crates at a time for a 10-30% discount. Mark it up for what you think it will sell for
Im not sure where it goes from there, thats where I am at.
I figure after that you'll need to expand your business to include maybe Doc clothing, and then Doc specialized Droids.
After you've acquired 100-500 million credits, expand your business into Armor, weapons, and more food.
Then you build a mall, name it after your initial Business Carry everything under the sun in this mall.
After that, Buy a city. Have the city change its name to the Name of your business.
Raise Taxes
Buy more and more cities, do the same thing
Own a planet
Own all of the planets
and then the Final step after you've acquired 2-4 Trillion Credits and you own almost everything on your server
Delete your character

If you mean how much do they charge, then varies from server to server.
On Bria, my Doc charges 15k per buff and I normally do about 25 per session generating 375k of revenue.
The buffs cost me about 150k including Bivoli & Brany, so the profit is 225k per session.
Naturally, the key variables here are how much if costs to make your buffs, and how much you sell them for.
Hope that helps!

well if u really want to break it down, if you're talking about buffing at a starport, constantly, withno breaks, always have a line, at 10k per person, you can buff 35 people in an hour, giving you 350k. that's 17 second intervals between enhancements.
based on my server, you can get decent buffpacks for around 35 or so uses, for 20k per, so that's 120k, plus 85k for a crate of bivoli (+25) with 2 eats at 25 total so 50 uses at 12 minutesa piece is 600 minutes or 10 hrs so that's only 8.5k per hour.
so thats 128.5k of expenses versus 350k income so you're lookin around 220k profit per hour, ina perfect world.
keep in mind ifu get really good packs or you're the only doc there u can go 12 to 15k depending on your server.

The way i calculated things is that the cost of buffing someone, if you buy packs, is about 4-5k. Bivoli, it depends. If you buffed the entire duration of your bivoli, add about .5k of cost per buff. If you only buffed a couple of people, add 2-3k
Overall, buffing one person with bivoli is around 5k and that includes the buffs.
So if you charge 15k, that's 10k profit per person or about 300k per set.

I sell my buffs for whatever the person can aford and it works out great.......I have only had 1 person tip me 1 credit and the most was 140k they all like what I am doing because the NooB can get there buffs at 5k and the older guys that have made there millions typically pay 20k- 30k and it all even out to 15k in the end and everyone is happy and not complaining about not have the money for a 15k buff

Wait a second, Bill gates only owns a company.
Since we are talking planets here, the character name should be.....
Richard Bush - AKA - D!ck Bush.

I agree that the main source of income for docs is buffing, however, don't over look the other opportunities.
For instance.....
Get a vendor and fill it with all the most popular doctor products - Stims and the like.
Look to get orders from Bio Engineers. I recently filled a 600k order for a BE and my profit on a few factory runs of just compenents was bout ~100k.
Other opportunities are to contract yourself out for hunting parties. Makes for good adventures too.
I do sell buffs and it can get boring. My longest stint was at Theed one day for about 8 hours and I sold about 65 buffs at 10 to 11k each. (2.2 to 2.3k at 3 hrs). When the time of the buff reaches 3.5+hrs then 15 to 16k a buff.
