peer agreement (net): +5Prof. XXXX M.D. Explanation: A perennial problem. "Prof. Dr." sounds very strange in UK English. I should give the title 'Prof' and then, if it is important to add the medical qualification/physician status add 'M.D.' after the name. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 mins (2008-11-28 10:18:29 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I do not think we would add the 'Ord(inarius)' ('Full professor') designation just on a business card, (versus, say, a full CV). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 mins (2008-11-28 10:28:35 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professor#Main_positions |
