Proper filing

How would you file:

I think it varies based on your system. Filing is typically ordered by last name, but as for labeling it, or in which order the title suffix goes, that will depend on the policies and practices of your workplace.

For example, some people change the M.D. suffix to the Dr. prefix when doing this.

Kim, Dr. James J.
