I'd love to think I was the "Doctor D" being referred to!!!

Reminds me of a young mother I was on an e-mail list last year who kept
saying to her mother "My pediatrician, Dr. Sears, says thus and such".  The
mother thought Dr. Sears was the baby's local doctor!  Except the mother
kept referring to him as "Dr. Penneys".  ;)
