Soy médico desde hace 40 años.
Sono dottore da 40 anni.
Bin Arzt seit 40 Jahren.
Je suis un docteur ............. (My French is very rusty, maybe you can complete?)

But in English:
I have been a medical doctor for 40 years (and still am).

The first 3 languages all use a present tense construction to express what in English (and the Scandinavian languages) is expressed by a (rather incomplete) past tense construction.

Since you expressed that in a not very English conform presence construction I guessed, that you may in some way have a background in - most likely - Spanish.
