印度审查禁止理疗师使用“医生”头衔的指令, India reviews directive banning physiotherapists from using "Dr." title, sparking debate.

印度政府正在审查一项指令, 防止理疗师使用“医生”前缀, 因为他们不被视为医生。 The Indian government is reviewing a directive that prevents physiotherapists from using the "Dr." prefix, as they are not considered medical doctors. 卫生服务总局(DGHS)认为,只有注册医生才能使用这一头衔,使用这一头衔的理疗师可能违反《印度医学学位法》。 The Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS) argues that only registered medical practitioners can use this title, and physiotherapists using it could violate the Indian Medical Degrees Act. 审查是在卫生保健组织提出反对意见后进行的。 The review follows objections from healthcare organizations.
