He uses title "The Doctor" and a lot of his Fans are still not sure why?

The following Information is from one of his short documentries. 

"Since dominating the 500 cc category later known as MotoGP, "The Doctor" has become the nickname of choice for Rossi. Two theories prevail as to why Rossi uses "The Doctor." One is that Rossi adopted the nickname upon having earned a degree, which in Italy entitles one to use the title "Doctor". 

Another, as spoken by Graziano himself, "The Doctor because, I don't think there is a particular reason, but it's beautiful, and is important, The Doctor. And in Italy, The Doctor is a name you give to someone for respect, it's very important, The Doctor... important". 

Rossi often jokes, however, that the name arrived because in Italy, Rossi is a common surname for Doctors.
