If you earned a degree in Another Country, you are entitled to use the abbreviation or title as exactly given by the agency bestowing the degree within that country. However, I would be careful that others do not confuse the abbreviation in this country with that of a practicing physician (which they will). Thus, to minimize this I would not use MD after your name, but (if you really feel a need to) use Dr. before your name for there are many kinds of doctorate programs. However, the latter is just a suggestion.

Shouldn't a DO be allowed to use the MD title?
Yes. A D.O. should be allowed to place an M.D. as their initials behind their name. A D.O. goes to medical school like any regular M.D. today. Foreign grads from the Carribean, Europe, or Australia who graduate with an M.B.B.S degree come to the U.S. and allowed to use the M.D. title. Their medical schools are not as tough as D.O. schools in the U.S. So, D.O.s should be allowed to use M.D. after their name like all these foreign grads have done. D.O.s are medical doctors so they should use M.D. !!
