Appears she has a PHD, and a relevant one, so using the title Dr is not out of order. However the way it is spread over the site and always included in reference it clearly is used to imply more medical capability than she has – which I actually think undermines your credibility a bit – but probably not with the target audience! You are wrong that it is an “Americanism” – in America we use the term MD to designate a qualified medical doctor. What is American is trying to make out you have a greater qualification than you actually do in order to add credence to what you are selling. Bah, I don’t fault her. Particularly if there is some good in what she is doing. Good on her for having some get up and go. I wish her luck!

Yes, Libby has a PhD, therefore has every right and reason to use the title Doctor. Doctor is not restricted to your “GP”. Libby is one amazing human being and has achieved more than MANY will in their lifetime. You won’t have seen a nurse called doctor, most likely due to the fact they have no PhD.

Is this woman a P.Hd. or general medical practitioner,? if not, why is she using the title Doctor?On general practitioners have the title “doctor”. This title is being used commonly by dentists,vets and chiropractors and they have no right to us it. I did see once, that the reason is that they are in medicine, but I have never sen a nurse called doctor. This is an americanism and has to go.
