ok guy. I am MD and PHD. All PHD people are not smart speciall sometimes in engineering just they take PHD with small project and course work.leaving these ordinary folks holding PHD ( they can be equivalent to MD) all other PHDs are intectually superior than MD.yu can just complete your MD with textbooks . Whats the big deal? They are highly regared because of the amount of money they make compared to other common jobs anfd directly involved in public health. Yes I respect MDs as profession but can't be compared with PHDs.
