    Maria Ryan, who denies being Rudy Giuliani's girlfriend, is a board-certified nurse practitioner and a radio personality. She is an aggressive self-promoter as well. But what caught my eye is that she promotes herself as "Dr Maria." However, most media do not report the source of her doctorate.

    It is a PhD in healthcare administration from Warren National University. Many will remember that school as the name of the former Kennedy-Western University. K-WU had to "leave" California when that state went through a period of aggressive institutional approval. It changed licenses to Hawaii, Idaho, and finally Wyoming, where it also changed its name to Warren National. It was forced to shut down there permanently. Many lawsuits ensued.

    I leave it to others to decide if it is ethical to use the title "doctor" in a healthcare field when one is not licensed as one, but is instead in possession of an academic degree.

    I'll also leave it to others to decide if it ethical to use the title "doctor" when the degree comes from K-WU/WNU.

    No and no, from my point of view.

    With a bonus that Maria Ryan and Rudy Giuliani deserve each other so I hope that they are dating. :D

    These are the same people who were critical of Dr. Jill Biden for using the doctor title after obtaining her EdD from the University of Delaware.

    There are some people critical about anything.

    I doubt there are many instances where she used the title, other than at work. A lot of others have, of course. And that's because she IS Dr Jill Biden.
