This DNP thinks he's a surgeon and equivalent to a physician. He works in the ENT dept at UMDNJ.
Any residents there care to comment?
Why is this foolishness being tolerated? Where is the program director? Why are the faculty standing idly by why this punk makes up all kinds of unsubstantiated claims?
Does the program director Dr. Baredes call this NURSE a "doctor" in front of patients and residents? Do the other members of the faculty, Drs. Kohen, Han, Jyung do the same? I wonder what they think about this NURSE calling himself a doctor in front of THEIR patients?
Who does this guy think he is? He's a NURSE, and thats all he'll ever be, is a NURSE. He'll never be a surgeon or a physician, I dont care how many stupid letters he has after his name.
UMDNJ ENT residents, speak up and get this clown kicked out of the program. I hope for damn sure he isnt "precepting" any of you.

"I can just imagine a patient of mine walking into my exam room and saying, 'Now Dr. Smith, are you a doctor doctor, or are you a doctor nurse?'"
"I am a doctorally prepared nurse," says doctor nurse Ray Scarpa. A doctor, he says, "is a doctorally prepared physician."
Scarpa works in the department of surgery at University Hospital in New Jersey. "I am not here to practice medicine, I am here to practice nursing," he says. "And I practice it at an advanced level, and I have earned the right to be called doctor."
For nursing students who begin right after college, it can take about six years to get the degree. While there is some overlap in knowledge, Scarpa says, doctors diagnose and treat while nurses have a wider focus including family, support and community
Scarpa believes the DNP degree will improve the stature of APNs in the workplace. Nursing has changed so much over the past few decades, he says. What has been slower to change is how APNs are perceived. As nursing and medicine are separate professions, wed like to see APNs functioning as equal members of the healthcare team, reporting to their peers. This will lead to better patient care.
