Hii Richardson,

Hope you are doing good.

You should be knowing that a physiotherapist helps us through their therapies for joint pain, muscle pain, and other therapy related ailments. They can only prescribe medication when working with the written authority of a doctor. A Department of Health consultation exercise envisages them being able to prescribe medication for pain relief and conditions such as asthma and no other common ailments.

I hope this was helpful for you.

Best wishes.

Take care.

Hi..No, it is not legal. Medicine used to be an elite profession not as It is Unfortunate to see that paramedics like physiotherapist are calling themselves 'Doctor' and prescribing medicine and test despite the supreme Court order banning all physios from Affixing the Dr prefix and prescribing tests or scan.

Hope this information useful to you.

Having a skill in Radiology can give you good scopes but that certainly don't mean that Physiotherapist don't have any scope. From a broader perspective, if you go for Physiotherapy then there are also very good scopes in hospital set ups as well as private practice. But as you can see for Radiology you don't get the exposure of private practice. So there are demand of both the fields provided you must have genuine interest on the subject as well as you must acquire skill from it.

Physiotherapists are not allowed to put the word 'Dr' with their name as prefix because they are not registered medical practitioners .
