Doctor, doctor, what do I do?

[Genevra Gerhart]

I would say you have two useable choices: (1) use Dr. for both; or (2) make
up your own alternative for the less common one such as "Professor doctor"
Ivanov.

Dear Paul,

I would say, it will be  "Dr hab." or "Dr habil." for doktor nauk.

Hope it helps,
