when i send a card to my friend paula and her husband, i address it to Mr and Mrs. i do not address it to DR and DR. i sincerely doubt she gives a thought to it, bc she is not one to tout her credentials, but i wonder if it rankles her husband. i just thought of it the other day when sending them an invitation to xsbaby’s grad party. well too bad if it does, because their professional credentials do not play into our friendship, they are a married couple with whom we are friends, who happen to be doctors.

They have earned the title Dr. If you refer to a nurse assigned to you as a "caregiver", you have insulted them. It is a demeaning, lumping term. I correct people if they refer to me as such. My degree is in nursing, not caregiving. I went to nursing school, not caregiver school. I account to the State Board of Nursing, not caregiving.
