No. Medical doctors in the USA (e.g. physicians) receive the professional training degree of MD or OD (Osteopathic Doctor). In contrast, a PhD is a higher academic degree based on philosophy, or research. A PhD does not prescribe medicine. A medical doctor may have a PhD, especially those that perform medical research, but most do not. If an individual has both an MD and a PhD they would list them in that order after their name (PhD listed last as it is the highest degree). A medical doctor holds a Doctor of Medicine diploma. Both Ph.D. and MD are doctorate degrees, so they're equal.
That will vary. If you have a PHD in physical therapy then it will be so. If you have a PHD in anything then your title will be doctor.
Dr. Phil McGraw is a Psychologist, not an MD. He has a doctoral degree in psychology, not medicine. Having earned his PhD he is entitled to the title of Doctor.
