  Yes, a doctor can mean two things. Either you are a medical doctor, where you get a degree called an MD. Or you are an academic doctor, which means you studied at university to get a PhD, then you can also have the title Dr. Academic doctors can also study English or history or art… any subject! It just means you went to uni for a long time and then wrote a book (called a thesis) on a particular subject.
