MD does NOT stand for medical doctor, although that's the common interpretation. MD is a Latin abbreviation, Medicinae Doctor. Its English translation is Doctor of Medicine. Similarly, a PhD stands for Philosophiae Doctor, or Doctor of Philosophy, not Philosophical Doctor. We don't use Latin much anymore, so we assign the letters a reasonable English equivalent medical doctor.
A doctor of allopathic medicine (M.D.) is a fully licensed medical doctor offering all the techniques and treatments of modern medicine. The method of treating disease is by the use of agents (medicines) that produce effects different from those the disease produced.
