MD = Doctor of Medicine.

FACP = Fellow of the American College of Physicians.

The Fellowship of the American College of Physicians is normally awarded to an experienced Board Certified specialist in Internal Medicine who has made some significant contribution to advancing medical practice -eg innovative treatments/ improvements in patient care; important research & publication of articles in professional journals; medical teaching or administration, leadership, management etc.. Many holders of the FACP are leaders in their field - typically senior attending physicians/ chiefs of services in major hospitals; often they're professors in medical schools or directors of research institutes.

How do you punctuate a MD facs?

When punctuating "MD FACS," it is typically written with a space between the "MD" and "FACS," so it appears as "MD, FACS." The "MD" stands for Doctor of Medicine, while "FACS" stands for Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. Including a comma before "FACS" is standard practice, especially in formal contexts, to separate the two credentials clearly.

Do you put the MD before the doctors name or after it?

Academic qualifications go after the name, so "Dr. John Smith, M.D., FACS". The "MD" stands for "Medical Doctor", as opposed to an academic degree in some other field. Many physicians have taken additional specialized training for their fields. So something like "FACS" stands for "Fellow, American College of Surgeons" for a specialist in surgery.

What is the difference between a Doctor Who is an MD and a Doctor Who is an MD F.A.C.S.?

MD just means Medical Doctor. It is the title on their medical school diploma (it is the same as lawyer having JD after their name). The doc with FACS after their name is Board Certified and has "jumped through the hoops" to become a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (it is an extra profession certification and orgazination).
