And then you look in California where the law is:

I'd note that, even under that statute, someone with "The Reverend Dr. Augustus Travail" or "Dr. Augustus Travail, DD" would get a pass because the use doesn't imply he is a physician.

Were I in charge of organizatonal compliance, however, I'd kick 'em to the curb, too.
