an adv. told me that it might be possible DO will be combined with MD in the future. a few reasons can be drawn as follow:

1. less MDs are willing to participate in internal medicine, family practice and so forth. DOs primarily concentrate in primary medicine, a good combination will provide a stronger health care to the patients.
2. from the geographical point of view, the locations of DO and MD are not quite the same. a combined MD/DO training programs will be conducive and beneficial to the need of that particular community.

anyway, what do you guys think about this issue? discussions and opinions are encouraged.
 
why exactly would they need to combine the two....i see little to no point to this....the programs are almost the same....manipulation excluded
