Alenaveda:

Well, as an example, Katherine is a follower of Natalie Anderson, Brittany Fletcher, Rachel Reilly, Jeremy Cline & Ernie Halvorsen.

(And somebody else called "Georgia Peach"  :cmas27 )

Research MD vs. practicing physician
Male vs. Female
Beginning of life (OB) vs. geriatrics/hospice
MD vs. DC or DDS
One end of the body vs. the other end (I won't spell that out  :cmas31:)
etc., etc.
I thought there might be a Nat/Kat connection, but nothing so far.

While any of this could be true, just wanted to mention again that someone with a PhD (e.g., a professor) would also be referred to as "Dr." and it wouldn't have to have anything to do with medicine - could be a historian, for example.  A PhD. is what comes to mind for me when I hear the phrase, "the other kind of doctor".  It could also be a non-MD person in the medical field, someone in biology, chemistry, etc.

Remember in Season 17 where Chad taunts Nat "How's that PhD working for you?" and she responds, "For the record, I have an MD."

There's a lot of colleges in the LA area.  Maybe they are friends of Nat and Kat, whether or not medical people - I think Nat and Kat went to UCLA, no?

That's possible too -  a psychologist would have a PhD while a psychiatrist would be an MD.   

Also, Winnie could be short for Winifred, though I expect people have thought of that.

And Cam could be for Camille or Cameron.

There are such things as PhD/MD.  I know several.

Very true - so do I.  Just trying to make the point, since it seems to be hard to pin down who this team is, that we could be looking for people with PhDs - who might, or very possibly might not, be involved in a medical field.
