Do you use a period after abbreviation for doctor?
Most people in the US do. It seems to be rather hit or miss in the UK (same with the abbreviation for "mister", which is usually Mr. in the US and seems to often be just Mr in the UK).
What punctuation follows an abbreviation?
Traditionally, a full stop (also known as a period in the US) follows an abbreviation. However, where UK English is employed, such as the UK, Australia and New Zealand, placing any punctuation after an abbreviation is outmoded, and no longer required. For example, a word such as Dr or Mr has no full stop after it in Australia, but in the US it is still written as Dr. or Mr.
