Subject: "Scully here is a medical doctor"
In reply to: devlin 's message, "Mulder likes to tease her" on 13:12:18 11/14/99 Sun



I love that bit from that Extreme Possibilites book. I think, as Devlin said, since she's in the FBI she gets called by the offcial title there which as "Agent". Being a doctor is really just an added bonus that has come in handy from time to time on live patients and of course her autopsies.

One thing that always strikes me funny is how, just about anytime she introduces herself to someone and medical attention/expertise is needed she or Mulder always say that she's a MEDICAL dotor. Now I know there are other kinds of titles that employ the word doctor, as in PHDs. But I think the average person always assumes someone in the medical profession any time the term doctor is used. Yet they always feel they must qualify Scully's postion by saying *medical* doctor. Just something I always noticed!

I think Mulder is more aware of her being a doctor than others in the FBI. He brings it up a lot and I think he is especially proud of her expertise in that field. He has even said that she was HIS doctor on occasion.
