Is a professor a specialist?

Professors at universities almost always have a PhD in their field. Pretty much being having a doctorate defines specialty. Why?

I think hes wondering if a professor could act as a specialist and diagnose him for a disability and/or sign his MMJ papers. My common sense tells me that they have to have M.D. to do anything with MMJ.

Edit: A specialist eligible for signing patients into this program must complete the certifying examinations of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada and obtain a license from the licensing authority in the province/territory they work.

Because again, the Doctor isn't the problem, it's the SPECIALIST, you can't simply hire a specialist like you can a Family Doctor, Specialist's are referral, or in my case, a surgeon on call during an accident.

He's having a hard time finding a SPECIALIST who has the credentials to FORMALLY DIAGNOSE his condition, he's having no trouble finding a doctor to sign his MMAR.

Oh ok I get it now. Does he qualify for something else? Something easier to get a confirmation for?
