Dr. Ms. Mrs. Mr. where to place before or after name
 
Traditionally, you don't use honorifics (Mr., Mrs., Dr.) in signatures. If you have a specific degree that you want to include (to let the recipient know that you're a doctor, or attorney, or whatever) you'd include the proper designation after the name. For example:

Sincerely yours,

John Smith, M.D.



Sincerely yours,

John Smith, PhD



Sincerely yours,

John Smith, Esq.
