Sharon's disrespect for the title of doctor is mind-boggling to me. She won't make it through med school with that attitude towards others. t🤦🏻♂️

DO degree holder calls out arrogance, warns of consequences generated by arrogance, warns of consequences to a certain point in medical school... Until she comes across the wrong professor in first year and tells them their PhD is as important. Or tries to correct the wrong attending in 3rd year and finds a lot of opportunities suspiciously close to her but open wider to more humble students. Unless it came from some unaccredited Christian diploma mill, the whole "your PhD isn't good enough" is pure crap.
