Reply to comment by CharlySB in Penn Medicine residents and fellows want a union, citing grueling workloads and 80-hour workweeks by nankles

I find that in hospital/work settings, it's professional to do that. Refer to them as DR, same as you would in school with Dr or Professor. But outside of work, at functions or happy hours, the person would be a real dick if they still made you call them Dr when you're not on the clock

I do work with them closely though. I work in drug dev tho, not in a practice setting.

I've worked with a few in practice and clinical who did still prefer "Dr" even at the casinos for work parties. Some of them can be pompous (even while taking off their wedding bands to drunkenly flirt with whoever they can)
