Should physical therapists be called doctors?' In 2015 or so half of all practicing PTs will be DPTs, not PTs. Are PTs upset that recent graduates are called 'doctor' but they aren't? They don't proscribe medicine after all. Personally, I don't want anyone calling me 'doctor.' I didn't earn that title, and I don't consider myself a 'doctor.' I think a doctor is one who understands and studies medicine, not someone who has 'doctor' in his title.
I'd like to hear what current PTs think.
