I looked up some stuff regarding some of the top internal med residencies. I heard that they are fairly competitive and require high board scores.

Check out this DO.

Are you just checking Ivy websites for DOs? lol

Its not like DOs dont exist in the ivory towers of medicine...but you are going to need to be a rockstar....of which I am not lol. Dont careeeeeeee.

Some of the hopkins PGY programs are reasonably DO friendly I hear.

There are fare more impressive DOs then that guy, no disrespect to that guy of course. http://t.co/CJYdJ4B . Director of Trauma at one of the big NYC hospitals is a DO. Lots of DOs have gone through Hopkins Anesthesia, IM, etc.

Head of trauma at bellevue and Columbia Presby (though he recently stepped down from Bellevue to be the program director of a AOA residency program in north jersey affiliated with TouroCOM. Kept the C-P position). Migs is the first DO to go into Maryland Shock Trauma, the #1 Trauma program in the US.

It's these type of discussions that fuel the eventual MD vs DO wars--especially in the pre-med discussion groups. Once you guys start rotating and interacting with more and more physicians, you will find amazing allo and osteo docs alike. Just because someone is at a name brand place doesn't mean he/she is a superstar. Go to a hospital that is majority or heavy on DO docs, and you will see the amazing level of care there. They may not do the complex surgeries or treat the zebras you will see at MGH or UCSF. But honestly, at the end of the day who gives a crap. DO, MD, RN just become good at what you do.

I have no idea why I rambled on, but I just get irked by posts like this 🙂 Good luck to all the future applicants!

yes... but not for the medical program. I'm assuming youre suggesting that they take NPs into the same program the physicians go into, which is slightly incorrect. Thats the shock trauma nursing program. This is for treating shotgun wounds to the chest and people who impale themselves on steel girders. Its not exactly something that a run of the mill NP is prepped for, and this makes properly prepped nurses.

Doubt anyone wants to read this, but just incase, here is the physician fellowship end of the program link
