Can you rank these degrees?

Can you rank these degrees?


In the order of most respected medical fields or most worthy initials to have after your name?





Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO)


Doctor of Chiropractic Medicine (DC)


Doctor of Medicine (MD)


Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS)


Doctor of Podiatry (PM)


Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD)


Doctor of Optometry (OD)


Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in medical/dental field

Can you rank these degrees?
PhD


MD


DDS


PharmD


OD


PM


DO


DC





This is how I feel about them. I'm earning my MD degree right now, I'm a med student. PhD is something I would want to be someday, but there is a lot of work to be able to do that. DDS requires dental school and PharmD a degree in pharmacy, which are also very hard schools. PM and OD, are degrees that we in Europe don't have. As I can see, there is special schools in US and Canada for this medical fields. So, I wouldn't compare anything to medical school and I will rank them lower than MD. And about DO and DC. Those aren't real doctors. And they very often do more damage, so MD's must fix what they messed up.
