Roles of physicians and their correct titles
Roles of physicians and their correct titles. Remember, a physician can take on more than one role. Kay Lenzer has been under the care of Dr. Practon for her annual physical examinations. She falls at home, suffering a compound fracture of her left tibia. Dr. Practon determines that the fracture requires treatment by a specialist and sends her to Dr. Skeleton, an orthopedic surgeon who orders x-rays and performs surgery to stabilize the fracture. During the recovery phase, Ms. Lenzer develops a peculiar skin rash and Dr. Skeleton sends her to a dermatologist, Dr. Cutis, for an opinion about the skin ailment.
