    If a physician is qualified to teach at the highest academic level due to their research skills, I’ll call them a doctor. Otherwise, they’re just a physician. Putting in IVs and prescribing cold medicine doesn’t make you a doctor. Research skills make you a doctor.

      You’re trying to be pedantic and it’s just making you look stupid. You also have no idea about modern medicine if you think physicians put in IVs. A central line, sure. But you don’t even know what this is without looking it up, I bet.
