What is a DO?
A D.O. is a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine. There are 2 pathways to becoming a fully licensed physician in the U.S., completion of an M.D. degree or D.O. degree. Both require 4 years of medical school. In addition the the standard curriculum D.O.s have extra coursework in Osteopathic practices and principles. A key difference, is the practice of Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment.
