Answer 1

Technically, anyone with a "doctorate" (a particular type of advanced degree from a university) can call themselves "Doctor".  So there can be doctors of philosophy, doctors of literature, and many others.

A 'medical doctor' is a person with a doctorate in medicine. As you know, medical doctors can work as general practitioners or specialise in many disciplines such as surgery, neurology, psychiatry, pediatrics, and so on.
