Well, I really am interested in their philosophy and it gives me yet another chance to become a doctor. I want to maximize my chances of becoming a physician and thought that I should apply to both osteopathic and allopathic medical schools. I guess that I really, really want this and don't feel like I can wait around and keep putting my life on hold to gain admission into a Canadian medical school. I am willing to relocate to the US...it'll be for a good purpose.
I have looked into being able to return to Canada. I have contacted my provincial college of physicians and surgeons and they gave me direct information that says, provided that the osteopathic medical school is on the World Health Organization's list of accredited medical schools, and I complete an allopathic residency, I can return back to my home province. Infact, I believe (although I have no concrete evidence) that I can even enter my province's residency match for family medicine.
I have done my homework and it is recognized in Canada, but I didn't know if I would be disadvantaged being a Canadian AND an osteopathic medical graduate. I suppose that if things work out and I really want a competitive residency specialty (i.e. ortho), I could do an AOA one and remain in the US. That is another possibility.
Anyway, thanks for your input.
