[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As an MD myself,

I don’t think they should be called “doctor” unless in an academic setting.

Basically every PHD, JD lawyer, pharmacist , And so on can walk around and say I’m A Doctor….

Sounds silly to call my JD wife Dr Jennifer?

Basically, in academic settings, schools, university sure. In public, it’s silly.  When I ask what kind of Aldo for sure to hand they tell me I have a PHD in history, I just shrug….[/quote]

You’re a supercilious ass.  The real doctors are the research PhDs who discovered and invented everything you know and use as a medical mechanic.  Give homage to the original thinkers.  You don’t even have a masters degree.  Med school is trade school and you know it.

-signed, a physician. [/quote]

Problem is that in a medical setting it is confusing to a patient for all persons with doctorates to call themselves doctor. If you have a janitor with a PhD in weave basking, they shouldn’t introduce themselves to a patient as Dr X. [/quote]

Not that many people on earth have earned doctorates to be confusing to even the dumbest people.  To earn a doctorate you must do original research in your field.  Unless a university or research lab exploded, you’d never have that many with the title of doctor to confuse you.
