PROFESSIONAL OFFICE means the office of a member of a recognized profession, conducted by a member of the resident family, which shall be clearly incidental to the primary residential use entirely within the principal building, and including only the offices of physicians, dentists, ministers, architects, authors, musicians and such other professional occupations which may be so designated by the Zoning Hearing Board upon its finding that such occupation is truly professional in character by virtue of the need for similar training or experience as a condition of the practice thereof, and that the practice of such occupation shall in no way adversely affect the safety and amenity of surrounding property to a greater extent than for the professional activities listed herein. The issuance of a state or local license for regulation of any gainful occupation need not be deemed indicative of professional standing.
