Does anyone know if Israel allows US DOs to obtain an Israeli medical license? If they do allow it, is the process the same as for allopathic physicians? Thanks for the info.
I don't think so. Generally at the moment, a US DO is not recognized anywhere except the US. Earning a DO might give you the ability to practice as an osteopath, but that has different meanings in countries outside the US and wouldn't allow you full medical practicing privilages. In the UK, osteopaths are pretty much treated similar to chiropractors, I believe. If you want to work abroad at some point in your life, you're better off getting an MD. Most other countries don't have both osteopathic and allopathic systems of medicine.
