The average salary of an MBBS doctor can range between INR 2.5 LPA and INR 15 LPA, whereas, the CA earns around 10 LPA.

However, the earning potential for Chartered Accountants (CA) and doctors can vary widely based on their specialization, experience, and the sectors they work in. 

Doctors, especially those in specialised fields like surgery, cardiology, or neurology, can earn substantial incomes, particularly if they work in private practice or prestigious hospitals. On the other hand,  

Chartered Accountants can also achieve high earnings, especially those who work with large corporations, and MNCs, or have successful practic

No, MLT graduates become doctors.

while a degree in Medical Laboratory Technology (MLT) provides a strong foundation in medical science and diagnostics, it does not qualify one to become a doctor. 

However, an MLT graduate can pursue further education to transition into a medical career if they really wish to become a doctor. 

For instance, they could enrol in MBBS, which is the standard pathway to becoming a doctor in India. This requires meeting the necessary prerequisites and passing entrance exams like NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test).

No, a perfusionist is not a medical doctor (MD or DO).

A perfusionist is a healthcare professional who specializes in the operation of the heart-lung machine, also known as the cardiopulmonary bypass machine, during surgical procedures. Their primary role is to maintain the patient's blood circulation and oxygenation when the patient's heart is temporarily stopped during surgeries like open-heart surgery, cardiac bypass surgery, or organ transplant procedures.

While perfusionists are vital members of the surgical team and play a critical role in maintaining a patient's physiological stability during surgery, they do not hold medical

Yes, the graduate in Veterinary courses is a doctor who is known by the title of "Doctor of Veterinary Medicine" or another title depending on the nation.
The title is, therefore, borne of their experience in diagnosis, treatment, and care for animals.
In the United States and Canada, for example, veterinarians acquire a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree.
In India, however, it is mainly referred to as "Bachelor of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry," or BVSc & AH; the colloquial appellation is "Doctor."

Again, those who come out from universities in most of the rest of the countries with Veterinary courses are holders of doctoral d

The average salary is estimated to be anywhere between INR 2.5 LPA and INR 15 LPA for MBBS doctors, while IAS officers are expected to get an estimated 14 LPA.
However, what doctors and IAS officers earn may be entirely different for a host of other reasons.
High earnings are commanded by doctors, more so those with specialised skills or those in private practice, often exceeding the levels commanded by IAS officers. The earnings chart is headed by surgeons, specialist doctors, and doctors in high-demand fields.
While the salaries of IAS officers are ever-increasing, their starting salary is quite less as compared to doctors working in a

Yeah, a person can become a doctor through a paramedical course but that's kinda like a step toward higher education

If you wanna do something in the whole MD or MBBS vibe, usually you gotta go through a medical degree A background in paramedical stuff can help a lot coz it makes understanding some healthcare stuff easier but mostly it's not the exact qualification you need to become a full-on doctor

No, Physiotherapists cannot be called doctors.

They examine, diagnose, and treat different physical disorders, injuries, or disablement conditions by using various physical techniques, exercises, and therapies.
While the physiotherapist is a mainstay in patient care and rehabilitation, he does not have a medical degree in himself, be it an MD or even an MBBS.
Instead, they have either a bachelor's or master's degree in physiotherapy from registered institutions. They apply specific therapies, working together with doctors and other health experts to improve mobility, manage pain, restore function, and maximize the potential of physical h
