Is it a big disadvantage if you get a letter of recommendation for residency from a PhD vs. an MD. I wouldn't think it would matter, but it seems like getting a letter of rec from somebody "well-known" is very important in many competitive specialties. I would assume that MD's are more well known amongst other MD's than the PhD guys.
Reason I ask is that I've done research forever with a PhD, but he probably isn't well known.
