Line 70:
In [[France]], the title of ''Docteur'' is only used in the current language for [[physician]]s, [[dentist]]s, [[veterinarian]]s and [[pharmacist]]s. Confusingly, the professionals from these medical domains do not hold a [[doctorate]], which is in France only a research doctorate, but a "State Diploma of Doctor". The holders of a doctorate are only rarely referred to as "Doctors", especially by the people who are themselves from an academic environment.{{Citation needed|date=October 2009}}

Dr...
In [[Germany]], the most common doctoral degrees are ''Dr. med.'' (medicine), ''Dr. med. dent.'' (dentistry), ''Dr. med. vet.'' (veterinary medicine), ''Dr. rer. nat.'' (natural sciences), ''Dr. phil.'' (philosophy and many other subjects), ''Dr. iur.'' (law), ''Dr. oec.'' (economy), ''Dr. rer. pol.'' (political sciences), ''Dr.-Ing.'' (engineering), and ''Dr. theol.'' (theology). All holders of doctorate degrees are appropriately addressed as "Herr/Frau Dr. _____" in all social situations. In professional situations, PhDs are recognized under the condition that the degree was granted by a university authorized to grant the degree according to the laws of the country of origin. Holders of PhDs granted in the E.U. can be addressed as "Dr." in Germany without any further addenda. According to a decision by The Standing Conference of the Ministers of Education and Cultural Affairs of the Länder in the Federal Republic of Germany of September 21, 2001, in the version from May 15, 2008, this also applies to PhDs that were awarded in Australia, Israel, Japan, or Canada. PhDs that were awarded in the United States are recognized if the awarding institution is classified by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching as a "Research University (high research activity)" or as a "Research University (very high research activity)." Different conditions apply for professional degrees such as the M.D. or J.D.<ref>{{cite web
