it was amusing to see why people think of a medical person when they hear of a doctor. not being endowed with the skill of arya, i humbly submit someone else's (Stoddard King's)poem!
The Doctors                                                                               
  Nowadays there's little meaning      
  For a person to be gleaning        
  When a man attaches "Doctor" to his name
  He may be a chiropractor
  Or a painless tooth extractor
  He's entitled to the title just the same.

  Or perhaps he is a preacher
  Or a lecturer or teacher,
  Or an expert who cures chickens of the pip;
  He may keep a home for rummies,
  Or massage fat people's tummies,
  Or specialize in ailments of the hip.

  Everybody is a "doctor,"
  From the backwoods herb concocter
  To the man who takes bunions from your toes;
  From the frowning dietitian
  To the snappy electrician
  Who shocks you loose from all the body's woes.

  So there's very little meaning
  For a sufferer to be gleaning
  When a man attaches "Doctor" to his name.
  He may pound you, he may starve you,
  He may cut your hair or carve you,
  You have got to call him Doctor all the same!
