if you do that program good luck actually using that extra D.O. degree because no insurance company will accept you with completing a 1 year internship only. Insurance will require you to at least be board qualified to get reimbursement to function as a family physician and you can't be board qualified without completing 3 years of residency. There is no added value to a podiatric practice with this degree you aren't going to be credentialed at a hospital any differently unless you are board qualified and you're not getting more money without being board qualified...it's a bust
