Without  more context, hard to say. Certificates can have expiration 
dates, too;  this is not the key distinction. Are we talking about a 
document that  authorizes the holder to perform some class of activity 
such as practicing  medicine, driving a car?
Thank you so much, Paul and Inna and others who replied to my  questions!
Precisely! The "certificate" was valid for five years to practice as a  
cardiologist,
so I am changing it to "license".

Yes.  Терапия is what we call "internal medicine," so a practitioner 
would be an  internist.
False friends! Apparently the word "therapeutist" used to be used in  
English, and
Google immediately routes you to "therapist".
Again my sincere thanks.
