Holder of a PhD (6)

I believe the answer is:

doctor

(Other definitions for doctor that I've seen before include "Medical specialist" , "bones" , "Ship's cook" , "Medical worker or holder of highest university degree" , "Medical practitioner, for instance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
