No BPT people can't do surgery. BPT course is mostly about non-invasive ways, physical therapy, exercises, and other ways to help patients get better, move well, reduce pain, and make body work good.
Physiotherapists don't have license for surgery. Surgery is done by doctors, especially surgeons who learn special training for surgery.
Hope this helped solving your doubt! All the best!

No, the Pharm D course does not directly qualify you for MD programs, which are typically reserved for MBBS graduates.
However, if you are really passionate about the course, you may still explore related postgraduate medical programs like MD in Clinical Pharmacology or other specialised courses that align with your PharmD background.
It's crucial to research the specific eligibility criteria and entrance exams required for these programs in India.

No, a graduate with a Diploma in Pharmacy (D Pharm) is not typically referred to as a doctor. The title of "doctor" is usually reserved for individuals who have completed a doctoral-level degree such as Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD), MD (Doctor of Medicine), PhD (Doctor of Philosophy), or other doctoral degrees.
Graduates with a D Pharm degree usually hold the title of pharmacist or pharmacy technician, depending on their specific role and responsibilities within the field of pharmacy.

Definitely, one can pursue B Pharma after completing D Pharma. The process is slightly different in terms that once a candidate completes a D Pharma, instead of taking admission to B Pharma directly and starting from the first year, the candidate can take admission to lateral entry. In this case, the candidate has to take admission in 2nd year and then the B Pharma shall be of three-year duration. This is a popular method of pursuing a B Pharma, wherein the candidates wish to expand their knowledge base as well as pursue a higher degree in Pharmacy.
