For a doctor which is the better designation MD or DO?

Both degrees are totally equivalent DOs have not been around as long as MDs, so the MD is more recognizable It should be noted that there are other medical degrees around the world as well, such as the MBBS, BMBS, MBChB MBBCh, BMed, MDCM, Dr. MuD, Dr. Med, and Cand. Med The author above http://wiki.answers.com/Q/User:Jstjohn27 is correct. As you can see above their are many titles for worldwide doctors: MBBS, BMBS, MBChB MBBCh, BMed, MDCM, Dr. MuD, Dr. Med, and Cand.

Med However, Jstjohn27, when 1 of those doctors above pass all the USMLEs and then do residency in US they take on the title MD. Why? Because everyone knows an MD is a Medical Doctor.

These worldwide doctors would not want anything other then MD, certainly not DO. Why? Because most people in US and worldwide, even today, do not know what a DO is.

You just don't see House, D.O. On TV, you see House M.D. Thus, it's time for the DO to change it's name to MD,DO or to MD.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
