True.  There are certainly incompetant doctors.  [Like every one
I've ever been to.  :-(  ]  And there are undoubtably people
who would be excellent doctors, but don't have the title.
That's not the question.  The question is would you go to someone
who called themself a (medical) doctor who wasn't?  (that is,
they are *lying* about their title/degree/certification/whatever)

Or, (attempt to get this back on a subject suitable for net.singles)
would you go out with them?
