on another note, to all people who read the japanese version of the manga, or just can read japanese, are they REALLY saying 'dr. snakes' or is that just a bad translation? my ignorant assumption is that itachi and kabuto were saying hebi sensei which would make more sense as snake master or master of snakes or something to that effect. but if he's saying hebi isha then i guess it would be doctor snakes...
Yours translation is a bad one, japanese don't use doctor as european does. So probably he says something along the lines of sensei. Hence better direct translation would be teacher snake, but as you see it still is a bad english, thus Dr. (or Prof.) snakes is a best one...
