Hi Dennis
I have a question for you, we are a chain of clinics, so we should use physician or Local Business Schem for Medical Clinic.

Hi,
Thanks for the question.
Here are some relevant sections of the Schema.org vocabulary which should be useful for you and confirm that the example you've given is correct:
https://schema.org/MedicalEntity
https://schema.org/MedicalSpecialty (Plastic surgery is linked from here)
This may also help:

In terms of productontology - this looks sensible but I'm not sure if Google recognise / accept them as a vocabulary to better understand your content. However, Schema.org doesn't cover everything you're trying to markup, so it should work fine for now but I'd recommend running your code through the rich snippets testing tool to see how Google respond to it.
Hope that helps!

If you are the one doing this and this is your own site, I would use a Physician as itemtype then medicalspecialty then additionaltype (which you did right)
