“Doctor of Philosophy”: Doctor with Arts Degree Goes Viral, Netizens React

A medical prescription slip that looked normal at first turns out to be funny as well as scary at the same time. An X user posted a medical prescription in which the doctor has written the medications, and the test shows a weird thing, which was pointed out by the user herself after she saw the slip. Normally in the slip, below the doctor’s name, the degree is written, which can be M.D., MBBS, and others, but what is written in this doctor’s slip will blow your mind. 

This doctor was a general physician with a degree of “B.A.” (English Honours) and also has a master's degree in M.A. Yes!!! A doctor who has no medical degree but instead a Masters degree in Arts is giving prescriptions to patients. And he is not only giving pills but also recommending tests. X user @epicnephrin_e posted this picture on her account, and the prescription was written in English and Bengali.

The user @epicnephrin_e posted this picture with a caption that reads, “Are people this blind?🤡 (See his designation).”

The post has garnered close to 6 lakh views with 4,200 likes, and people in the comment section shared their thoughts. 

User Reactions To The Viral Post:

One of the users said, “Who gave him the license?”

“Doctor of Philosophy,” said a popular account, @Being_Humor. 

Another user said, “Handwriting se hi samajh raha ki ye medical student kbhi tha hi nahi.(From the handwriting itself, it can be understood that he was never a medical student.)”

“His ‘handwriting’ is a clear giveaway, even if you don’t consider his qualification,” wrote another user. 

“Pls send the number of that doctor; my book folded the wrong way, and it is now unconscious.”
