47. "El-Sayed touts his doctor credentials -- but he never practiced medicine"

... El-Sayed is not licensed to practice medicine in Michigan, according to state records, a fact he tends to omit from his resume in campaign literature, in which he uses the professional title of "physician."

snip===================================

[Mohammed] Arsiwala, [M.D., a Livonia internist and president-elect of the Michigan State Medical Society], a member of the Michigan Board of Medicine, the state's physician-licensing body, thinks El-Sayed is walking a fine line in publicly presenting his medical credentials as a candidate for governor.

snip===================================

Whether it matters that the doctor never practiced medicine clinically is up for Democratic voters to decide in the Aug. 7 primary.

But one could argue El-Sayed's campaign literature showing him wearing a doctor's white lab coat is akin to graduating from law school and presenting yourself as an attorney — even though you never took or passed the bar exam.
