I have a PhD, but can't represent myself as doctor or use the Dr. Prefix as this is reserved for member of the college of doctors.

- chrisseaton 8y agoThat’s bonkers! Doctor was originally a title for academics before medics borrowed it. I think medics without an MD or PhD shouldn’t be using the title. What country is that in?
- jpambrun 8y agoCanada, specifically Quebec (I am not sure about other provinces). I find it slightly annoying too. However, my degrees are in engineering and it makes sense to me that the engineer term is reserved.
