Has your natural "doctor" received a degree in medicine or a postgraduate doctorate? If not, then no. The title Doctor is given to those who have completed sanctioned degree courses that are approved to award certain titles.
No. In the U.S. the license to practice medicine is granted independently by each state. The degree "Doctor of Medicine" (M.D.) or "Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine" (D.O.) is granted by a college or university with an accredited medical school. Therefore, if a doctor loses his licence, loses his authorization to practice in that particular state, not his title or degree. The same thing would happen if an nurse lost his/her license. They would no longer be a registered nurse, but they would still have their degree (BSN, MSN, etc.)
Lawyers do not typically go by the title of "doctor" because the term "doctor" is traditionally associated with medical professionals who have earned a doctoral degree in medicine (MD) or a doctorate in another healthcare field. In the legal profession, the title of "doctor" is not commonly used to refer to lawyers, who typically hold a Juris Doctor (JD) degree.
