I have completed MBBS and DCH (Post graduate diploma in Child Health) from India and am now a part of a research team. For one of the articles that is being sent, the editors of the article want to know if I can attach MD after my name instead of MBBS, DCH. Please help me understand if I can do so. Also, the article will be published in the journal across the globe and MBBS and MD in US and India mean different. What should I be doing? Will I get into any legal tangle if I go ahead and put MD DCH or only MD instead of MBBS DCH
i think MD will be fine as if u do ur MBBS evaluation by World Education Service, they will write down MBBS equivalent to MD in US...
Here who ever complete allopathic med school are recognize as MD..
Thanks. Came across this piece of information as well and does this mean we can write MD afer our name and especially in my case in the article?
