Asianet a regional channel in malayalam from Kerala State in India reported that there are fake Doctors practising physiotherapy, were not allowed to Put "Dr" to their names. Physical therapists in India (called as physiotherapists) were struggling since many years to form an independent Physiotherapy Council. PT Practioners can not put "Dr" as instructed by an Association ( INDIAN ASSOCIATION OF PHYSIOTHERAPISTS- IAP) which is not a regular body to control PT practices in India. Remember any one can make an association, if they legally submit documents to government. IAP is also one among them.

I am sorry to say this fact.. coz I am also from Kerala, has been putting Dr to my name when i was in india, knowingly it was not legal. As per a court order (I forgot which court? ) PTs can put Dr but they should specify or write PT after their name, so public can/may not be mistaken.

I still want to be with PT side.. asking why Dentists in India Putting Dr to their names? its legally allowed. So friends in india , try to get untited and make an independent council which can permit to make you a Genuine doctor.

All the best for PTs in India.
