Hi guys. I saw a sentence 'i'll fetch you a dctor', is this the same meaning with 'I'll find you a doctor' ?

'find' suggests you need to search for one. 'fetch' means go and get them, and bring them back.

Note that in American English, "fetch" sounds rather old-fashioned. We would normally say "I'll go get you a doctor."
