I always thought it was <title><full name><specialization> so Dr. John Smith, DDS indicates he's a dentist, while Dr. John Smith, DTh would be a highly educated preacher.
My brother-in-law is Dr. <firstname><lastname>, ME which is NOT a Medical Examiner (in his case, thought it would apply for someone else.) He's a doctor of mechanical engineering. (My Jewish mother got her wish - my sister married a doctor!)
So, Dr. John Smith, John Smith MD, and Dr. John Smith MD are all correct usages of the title/specialization. The differences and "right vs. wrong" therefore must be regional differences, and as such really shouldn't matter. So, to those that complain it isn't how they think it should be, I have nothing but pity for their ignorance. (Of course, if they weren't ignorant about it, they wouldn't complain and you'd have nothing to post!)I will not be pushed, stamped, filed, indexed, briefed, debriefed, or numbered. My life is my own. --#6Comment
