No, a Pharmacist is not considered a doctor in the same sense as a medical doctor (MD or MBBS). While pharmacists (who hold a Doctor of Pharmacy degree, Pharm D) are highly trained healthcare professionals with expertise in medications, drug therapy, and patient care, they do not typically diagnose illnesses or perform medical procedures in the same way medical doctors do.

Pharmacy focuses on pharmaceutical sciences, drug development, formulation, dispensing, and patient care. On the other hand, MBBS focuses on medical sciences, diagnosis, treatment, and management of diseases and injuries.
