No. It (usually) means they are a (Comsultant) surgeon.

Nope just means you've passed the Royal College of Surgeons exam!

I am not doctor I don't know squat about medicine and procedure and i don't really need to do but ever doctor in the ortho dept had Mr on the door and all Indian/middle eastern everyone. Maybe the Indians are being hustled out to america by the growth of the EU and these so called qualifed doctors from eastern europe. Plus it's the money, you will really rake in over there if your well up in your field more so than here probably.

Can I ask you something Doc? Yes or no can you tell if a person has a bad stomach just by looking at their tongue without any other examination or questioning?
