Good point. And nurses, physical therapists, etc. also use the term patient. My niece is an audiologist and calls her patients "patients". My sister was a radiotherapist and referred to her patients as "patients". In the hospital, every person who worked with me, from the pdocs down to the social workers referred to me as a patient, medical degree or not.
