Can someone explain why the other answers would work in this problem??

wouldn't they all make sense?
example: "I am a student" or "I am a teacher", why is 医者doctor the only one that fits the blank

Only 医者 is correct.
You NEVER refer to yourself as ~さん! You only use ~さん when referring to people OTHER than yourself.
As for 先生: 先生 is not a person, it is a TITLE, like Mr. Mrs, Dr, Professor, etc. The correct way to call yourself a teacher is:
私は教師です。
If you want to say that Mr. Suzuki is a teacher, you say:
鈴木先生も教師です。
Suzuki gets the 先生 title, because he is a teacher. You don't call him 鈴木さん。 Doctors and masters of martial arts also get the title 先生.
