Doc is a slang term for doctor for everyone outside the military. I understand

it is common practice in the military, but this is not a military web board, it

is a civilian web board. I don't see why the expectation of calling yourself Doc

carries over to the civilian world any more than you would expect to be called

Major. I was taught to respect hard won titles, and I have always hated being

called Doc by the people I work with. I don't see it as a term of endearment, I

see it as a marginalization, as if all medical personnel are interchangeable.

The simple truth is a 91B is not as valuable as a the Surgeon General, that is a

socialist concept that is contrary to everything we teach in medicine and the

military. I am sure in the service you enjoyed the perks of your rank, including

the title, which you still use in your signature, and I am sure you would

correct any PFC who didn't refer to you as sir when it was called for. Thanks

for correcting me

Doc, obviously my mistake.

Point taken, remember I'm still one of the good guys and I don't think I used

red in my fonts.  Remember I am an officer and gentleman by an act  of

Congress. I don't recall being mean to anyone here. I have been appreciative and

acknowledging my brother and sister medics too. i can be stubborn when it comes

to sticking up for my pts even when I get trashed out there for doing so, no I

don't say it was your group, but others for doing what is right.  I have used

some humor.  It is my faith as a Christian and my sense of humor that has

gotten me through rough times when possibly like many out there with combat

experience may have gone through.  So point taken, I maybe a stubborn old

Baptist boy, but have not put down any you. If I have please point it out and

I'd humbly apologize for such
