In my experience (and I've worked at ....at least 5 hospitals in my 3.5 year career so far lol) it all depends on the workplace. I work in Pathology so obviously we have technicians, technologists and pathologists, the latter being doctors. I myself am a Pathologist Assistant, so I do their dirty work, dissection of surgical specimens and such, and so work with them quite closely. I always address them professionally, using title (Dr.) and last name, but one thing I've noticed while jumping from hospital to hospital is that in a more busy environment, where pathologists will be mixing with PAs and residents and surgeons, everyone calls each other by their first names. It never bothered me, as I am treated with respect and they defer to my expertise when it comes to hands on work but I do find myself thinking about it at times but meh... what are you gonna do.
