So I have been working and doing some research with this super famous and prolific personnel who used to be a PA and is a PHD and a Professor. Is it okay to get a LOR from this person for ECFMG application? or Can I only get a LOR from a MD?

You can do whatever you want. The question is always what helps you case the most. If this is a research letter, that's fine.

Well it's going to be LOR for my residency application as an MD in the US.
