SO then Frist is not a real doctor?

He is an MD, so one can claim he is a "real" doctor.

That said, he is not a neurologist and had no actual contact with Schaivo - his medical opinion on her case was less than useful.

It was, IMHO, unethical for him to assert clinical knowledge of her case when he had never seen her.

So he is a real doctor - who really abandoned his medical ethics for political gain. Worse than a fake doctor, in my book.
