PETALING JAYA: The use of the title “Dr” must not mislead the public into believing a person is legally qualified or authorised to practise medicine, says the Malaysian Medical Association (MMA).
Its president Datuk Dr Thirunavukarasu Rajoo said the association is concerned that the misuse of medical titles could undermine public trust and put patient safety at risk, particularly at a time when health-related information is widely shared online.
