Dear aspirant....!!



Anyone who holds a minimum MBBS degree with or without any additional specialisations like MD/MS/DIPLOMA, BDS degree holders(WITH OR WITHOUT MASTERS) are allowed to use the title *Dr* before their names , however pharmacists and physiotherapists have been frequently using it which is not approapriate and the courts have frequently warned them!



Also people who complete their doctorate(PhD) in any subject and submit their own thesis are also allowed to use the title Dr before their name. I hope it clarifies your doubt.



All the best!
