Not necessarily. Depends on where. you are, I suppose. A Ph.D. is an academic terminal degree in the U.S., for example. But there are other terminal degrees of equal rigor.
Totally agree with you it's so annoying when people say stuff like that you can tell that they have had someone take a title they didn't deserve or they are someone who does that , they feel the need to reflect their insecurities on other people 💖💝💖💝 so when you are met with something negative -lifes a mirror ,
Actually MD mean doctor of medicine, not medical degree. So ye an MD is a doctor. Where you're getting confused is because Germany does not hold any MD programs. The process to practice medicine is different in Germany. But that doesn't suddenly mean that a doctor of medicine (MD) is suddenly not a doctor. Furthermore, an MD is often harder to get than a PhD.
What sets the PhD and EdD apart from the MD is the level at which it is granted. PhDs and EdDs are considered equivalent doctorates and only differ in focus. PhDs and EdDs are terminal degrees granted by graduate schools and considered the highest degree an institution can offer. MDs are undergraduate degrees conferred as professional degrees. The JD degree has at its root the LLB which was also based in undergraduate context though it evolved over the years. Also, the Latin root for doctor means “teacher.” This is why there is disagreement in how the term is used more for prestige in some circles but it’s for accomplished teachers and scholars, though MDs fill this role in some contexts too. PhDs and EdDs are proper doctors and can use the designation as a title. Professor is also appropriate in the academic setting.
medical doctors upon graduation in UK only have a BSc, MSc at a push, its like graduating in any other STEM discipline. They do not deserve that title until they have done further study, IMO.
In many countries a doctor of medicine is taken AFTER a Bachelor's and even master's degrees. Don't compare actual medicine to other STEM courses. Perhaps in the US or the UK where the doctors are incompetent and only do college level work.
Thanks for being lovely even with the people who not act nicely. My idea is why does this issue make the person do not sleep well? I am saying that because if he asked a such question it means that he can not sleep till he has the answer to it
It is worth noting that for some universities the Professional Doctorate is their academic research programme instead of a PhD, and Prof Doc graduates are often awarded the title of Dr.
That's false, they are not PhDs, they're professional doctorates, like everywhere else, and the thesis that are presented in French medical studies does not award the degree a "doctoral" status. That's straight from the french site on medical education. PharmDs, MDs and DMD/DDSs are PROFESSIONAL doctorates. They are UNDERGRADUATE doctorates. PhDs are GRADUATE degrees. That's why many medical degrees are titled "Undergraduate doctorate in medicine". It's not a true doctorate, but due to complaisance we still assign the title doctor to them anyway. Many lawyers have JDs (also undergraduate doctorate). We don't call them doctor. The only degree that automatically grants the title doctor basically everywhere in the world is the same degree Dr Yonis has: A Third-cycle, graduate research doctorate requiring a doctoral thesis. Please know your own education system
In my country, it the same but sometimes use prof, instead for people with ph.D. we need a new title to stop the confusion cause no we can't keep confusion going, any suggestions people
In a hospital setting, clinical academic nurses, midwives, dietitians, pharmacists etc with PhDs don't sign with the Dr title to avoid the confusion, which is sad :(
In my country a Doctor is a person that has a PhD and/or a Physician... Both are important and treated with the same level of respect... I don't understand what's the big deal for people complaining that a PhD holder shouldn't be called Doctor, the funny thing is that most of the people complaining don't even have a Bachelor degree 😂😂😂😂
In the UK a medical degree is 6 years of full-time study combined with practical. Plus many years of foundation and speciality training. Most PhD's do not compare in difficulty.
The Germany part is not even true. If you study medicine, after your “Staatsexamen”, you are called Dr. as a preface to your name. And a “Doktortitel” is your Dr.-preface when you did your Ph.D. Thesis
Thanks DrAminaYonis. I'm still confused! A medical doctor called Physician and the one with Doctorate called Doctor sounds better. Two different professionals called with the same name as Doctor, I don't thinks is a good idea!
One of the main differences is that a PhD is typically an academic degree, while a doctorate can be either academic or professional. Additionally, a PhD is highly theoretical and research-focused, while a professional doctorate is practical and geared toward applying research to specific professional settings. A PhD isn’t higher than a doctorate.
LOL. This insulting. A doctor is an English word that defines a person who is qualified to treat people who are ill. It is not just a title. It is a profession. It was coopted by the academic world. That shouldn't mean that a common Ph.D. holder would attempt to push Medical Doctors away from using Doctor as a title. And you are wrong in your assertion that in the USA that doctors aren't called Doctors. For heaven's sakes, they even use it as their suffixes. Please drop this notion.
Please look at the historical origin and etymology of the word "doctor". You'll swiftly find out that the word means "to teach" or "scholar" (like doctrine). It was and is an academic term co-opted by the medical profession. Most of my friends in the medical profession even know this. The point of this video is to emphasise that PhDs are more than eligible to use the title Dr. (for receiving their doctorate). In fact, it makes the most sense. No stress either way, but the meaning and use of words historically, their rationale and origin are important.
Ph.D. sets an individual from the rest. it puts u on a different pedestal
And so does not going to school
Not necessarily. Depends on where. you are, I suppose. A Ph.D. is an academic terminal degree in the U.S., for example. But there are other terminal degrees of equal rigor.
Definitely it does set one apart in student loans. 😅

People in the United States use doctor and physician interchangeably.
Mashallah you are so knowledgeable and down to earth person.
Great 👍 Dr Amina❤
Get them together sis. You earned that title. Do people know how hard it is?

MD is a post graduate degree not UG
That was complete bullshit. And MD means a Doctor of medication. So...
Right. We got the title from our contribution in philosophy and stidy for 10-12yrs for PhD
Yes 👍 A PhD (A doctorate degree) and MD (Doctor of Medicine) Thanks

Yes 🎉. you are right in this statement.actually in a few country which entitled doctor, the right thing should be with PHD
It is worth noting that for some universities the Professional Doctorate is their academic research programme instead of a PhD, and Prof Doc graduates are often awarded the title of Dr.
My medical degree certificate literally says “Doctor en Medicina”
When you say doctor to most general public the first association is a medical doctor. This is not just the UK but most of the world
Absolutely! There's a big difference between the profession of a doctor and the title Dr :)
@@DrAminaYonisand the rest of the world calls medical doctors DOCTOR. Language is evolving and adapting.
Phd is more difficult then md
Not if you get an MD PHD
PhD in what? 😂
Don't even compare it with MD medical degree
@@dr.shadmbbsdphmasco PhD: research, MD: reading textbooks
What is more difficult?
In France a medical, pharmaceutical and dental degrees are phds, so they get the Dr title right away
Wow, that's so interesting! Pharmacists here do not get the Dr title unless they do a PhD.
That's false, they are not PhDs, they're professional doctorates, like everywhere else, and the thesis that are presented in French medical studies does not award the degree a "doctoral" status. That's straight from the french site on medical education.

Masha allah Dr. Aamina

On a plane you won't say you are a doctor, but you deserve the title doctor internationally. Interesting 😅
I like your English!❤❤❤
In a hospital setting, clinical academic nurses, midwives, dietitians, pharmacists etc with PhDs don't sign with the Dr title to avoid the confusion, which is sad :(
Yes but writing their names with PhD would make us to realise that they are PhD holders
If you have a phd, you aren't called a doctor. Doctor is always thought of as a title for those who are medically trained. 100% right.
In my country a Doctor is a person that has a PhD and/or a Physician... Both are important and treated with the same level of respect... I don't understand what's the big deal for people complaining that a PhD holder shouldn't be called Doctor, the funny thing is that most of the people complaining don't even have a Bachelor degree 😂😂😂😂
The real doctor is a person with PhD.
Lol it's a medical professional.
The medical degree can be called doctors
MD Medical Degree Was Doctor of Medicine I Thought Oof
In the UK a medical degree is 6 years of full-time study combined with practical. Plus many years of foundation and speciality training. Most PhD's do not compare in difficulty.
Still undergrad 😂
Yes because PhDs do not rely on only textbooks lmao.
@@d.e.uteron1148 That's completely right. I've friends who have phd's in the UK, it's not a title they use openly. While medical doctors often do.
Then what’s do they call the medical Dr?
The Germany part is not even true. If you study medicine, after your “Staatsexamen”, you are called Dr. as a preface to your name. And a “Doktortitel” is your Dr.-preface when you did your Ph.D. Thesis
I treated my lil bro headache with a painkiller. I become a doctor in one day.😊
PhD (Doctorate) is at a different level altogether its the biggest achievement one can have in life
No, it is not.
What is a PhD and what is a Doctorate?
How about getting an MD and a PhD
The real doctor is the one has PhD
All I remember from this debate is our beloved Ross from Friends 😂😂
Thanks DrAminaYonis. I'm still confused! A medical doctor called Physician and the one with Doctorate called Doctor sounds better. Two different professionals called with the same name as Doctor, I don't thinks is a good idea!
You are so gorgeous.
Why listen to someone who obviously still believes in absurdities?

Yes well said. There is even more high than PhD is Dsc stands for Doctor of Science
You are beautiful walalo

Aw, don't be insulted :) We live in a free world, call yourself what you will. Just giving my doctoral opinion.
Bro is really committed to being a hater, you might as well get a doctorate for it.
