I am moving to Australia with my wife. Do the Australian osteopathy degrees compare to the American DO degrees? Is it possible to take a licencing exam in the US with an Australian degree? Thanks - Chan
 
Well, why do that? Isn't the answer "No?"

The Australian osteopaths are true osteopaths. Like British osteopaths they're only trained in OMT/OMM and they haven't a clue when it comes to the full scope of practice the American DO enjoys.

You can't take COMLEX with an Australian DO.
