Hello There,

Hope you are doing good.

Dieticians are not Doctors , but they are Health care Professionals. A dietitian has a Four years Batchelor's degree . Basically they have specialization to plan meal depending upon your health and nutritional requirements.

After completing PhD in any Specialization you can use Prefix Doctor.

Talking about Psychologist :- Psychologist is considered as a lucrative career option who intend to serve in the health sectors.

Psychologist is the person who holds a degree in psychology and able to cure mental illness with counselling and therapies .

Psychologist cannot consider as  a doctor as they never attend a medical school and can't prescribe medicines.

For Being a Doctor you have to go in several fields like :- MBBS ,BDS, BHMS, BAMS etc .

Hello aspirant,

None of the above mentioned is a doctor. However, both can attain a doctorate degree after doing a PHD in their respective courses, and then use the prefix doctor. NEET marks are not required to pursue both courses. However, to become a doctor you must qualify for the NEET exam and then opt for MBBS/BDS as per choice.

Hope it helps!
