Considering or Currently in Osteopathic Medical School?
This is an important article for any pre-meds considering osteopathic (DO) medical school or current DO students, especially those considering a career in emergency medicine. These failed negotiations among the American Osteopathic Association (AOA), the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine (AACOM) and the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) are disappointing. I am still a big fan of DO school as an option for pre-meds, but it is worth understanding what kind of challenges DOs can face.
