Hello,
I am a 4th year D.O. student and I may be completing my residency at an allopathic program. My question is when I finish residency, will I have to sit for both the D.O. and M.D. Family Practice boards? Or can I just take the D.O. borards? Or does it just depend on the state that I will practice in? Finally, do board certified D.O.'s in family practice have to re-certify every certain number of years like the M.D.'s? Thank you very much.
