    PhD in Medicine and MBBS serve different purposes and are not directly comparable, as they cater to different career paths. 

    An MBBS is a medical degree focused on clinical practice, allowing graduates to become doctors and provide patient care. On the other hand, a PhD in Medicine is centred around research and academic inquiry, often leading to roles in medical research, teaching, or pharmaceutical development. 

    While an MBBS enables direct interaction with patients and clinical problem-solving, a PhD opens doors to advancing medical knowledge, developing new treatments, and contributing to innovations in healthcare.
