They DO NOT have the same pattern. But, each of them is found within eachother.
They both have a Minor sound to them, or a Minor application. But, the Intervals are different between those two scales. The are not the same scale.
Dorian - R 2 b3 4 5 6 b7 R
Phrygian - R b2 b3 4 5 b6 b7 R
Here you can see the similarities in Intervals and the differences.
They both have a R b3 4 5 b7 R in common. And, this is actually a Minor Pentatonic scale.
Then these Intervals make them different 2 v/s b2, 6 v/s b6. So, they are definitely not the same, but there are similarities.
