MD =/= PHD
MD = Doctor
PHD = not a doctor.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_(title)
As a noun yeah it’s more common in the western world to refer to medical doctors. But its origin is that of teachers, not medical practitioners.
Nice bait.
Is it? Or is it just kinda dumb?
I choose to believe no one is this particularly misinformed.
It’s really funny bait, though
PhD is literally “Philosophy Doctor” or “Doctor of Philosophy”
Also “doctor” means teacher. The specific term for someone who practices medicine is “physician”.
