Do you think Naturopaths should be called Doctor?!


Question:

Do you think Naturopaths should be called Doctor?

-container">They heal just the same as conventional medical practitioners but without using prescription medication and doing minor surgeries, instead they use herbs and natural therapies.

Shouldnt they be called doctor too?


Answers:

If History Proffessors and Chiropractors and Dentists can be called Doctor I don't see why Naturopaths can't be called whatever they want, but technically someone who is called Dr. is called that because they have a post-graduate degree. It doesn't always have anything to do with medicine. (like the history proffessor) So in short, being a healer doesn't make you a Doctor, but being a Doctor doesn't make you a healer either. It just makes you a person with a post-graduate degree.
