Yes, BAMS doctor can also be drug inspector if they do right study and get the need qualification. But not everyone can do it just after finishing BAMS, they need extra step.
Mostly drug inspector job ask for degree in Pharmacy or something like that. Still BAMS student can take more training in medicine, pharmacology or pharma science and then apply. So it's not impossible, but little more work needed.

Nope, a BAMS doctor cannot practice as a gynecologist in modern medicine directly. But, they can specialize in "Stree Rog and Prasuti Tantra," which is the Ayurvedic branch focusing on women's health, pregnancy and even childbirth.

Yes, BHMS course graduates are legally entitled to be called "Doctors" in India. After completing the Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery (BHMS) course, they are recognised as Homeopathic doctors.
The title of "Doctor" is granted as they are qualified to practice Homeopathy, diagnose medical conditions, and prescribe homeopathic medicines.
However, it is important to note that while they can be called "Doctor," their practice is limited to homoeopathic medicine and does not include the prescription of allopathic treatments unless they pursue further qualifications.

Well, it's actually not. Though it will grant a title of “Doctor” (Dr.) in a professional capacity, it's not some traditional medical doctor's degree like MBBS. BPT means a Bachelor of Physiotherapy, who specializes in rehabilitation, physical therapy, and pain management without prescribing medicines or performing surgeries.
Once you complete this course and obtain a license from the respective state council, you can use the prefix “Dr.” before your name.

MBBS doctors are like junior doctors (foundation years) in UK. The average UK doctor salary per month is around GBP 3,000 to 4,000 (INR 3 to 4 lakhs). MBBS is a qualification, not a specialization. Salary will also depend on the doctor's chosen speciality area.

It is phenomenally easy to confuse the term 'Doctor,' as both a PhD and MBBS are referred to as 'Doctor'; however, they have very different roles and expertise.
An MBBS has been given the authority to practice medicine and treat patients as a medical doctor. They can diagnose you, prescribe you treatment plans, and perform surgeries on you.

A dermatologist is primarily a medical doctor specializing in diagnosing and treating conditions related to the skin, hair, and nails. While dermatologists are not surgeons in the traditional sense, they are trained to perform various surgical procedures when necessary.
These include skin biopsies, excision of skin cancers, mole removal, and certain cosmetic surgeries such as laser treatments or dermabrasion.
However, more complex procedures, like reconstructive surgery, are typically handled by dermatologic surgeons or plastic surgeons who have additional specialised training.
