The doctors I know had PhDs in subjects like History, Literature, Music and Mathematics. I think one was psychology.
I do know do not ask a doctor of history if his medical doctor father wanted him to become a real doctor. Learned that one the hard way.
So you're saying you wouldn't take medical advice from a PhD? I would hope not
PhDs aren't generally referred to as doctors, although that is part of their title. When people say doctor, especially in the context of this thread, it's understood, I think, that we're referring to a physician.
