[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, but not a medical doctor. Same as so many others, some of whom use "Dr." in their title, others who don't. So if someone yelled "Is there a doctor in this room?!" in a medical emergency, you would not expect a PharmD to say "yes!" but if it was a pharmaceutical incident (no idea what that could be), she could say "I am a pharmacist!?[/quote] The title (Dr) is earned by achieving a doctorate degree. They are not doctors as we now call medical doctors. When I was a kid in France, we called our doctors Mr or Miss. Now they’re routinely going by Dr but that in my lifetime (65). To me as a child, Mr Smith was a doctor but my neighbor Dr. DesGarden was an art history professor. It should have stayed this was. Dentists and medical doctors don’t have doctorates. [/quote]
