MD

Tag details

MD is the designation for Doctor of Medicine.

In the United States and Canada, the term Doctor, Physician or MD is used to describe those holding the degrees of Doctor of Medicine (MD or M.D.). It is also used to describe the holders of medical degrees from other countries when practicing in North America (in the UK and other Commonwealth countries, such degrees are typically MB BS, MB BChir etc which are equivalent to the US MD degree). The American Medical Association, established in 1847, uses physician in this broad sense to describe all its members.

It's accepted practice for those who hold a medical degree MD to use the title of "doctor" and prefix their names with "Dr."

In the bloggosphere, MD's usually refer to physicians who are bloggers, or who utilze a blog to provide patient informaton, market their medical practice, or share and disseminate research information. A number of MDs have widely read medical blogs that relate stories or context from their personal lives as they practice medicine.
