I want to become a surgeon.
I'm trying to understand the differences here. So both are medical schools, you learn the same stuff, take different cert. exams, and then go on to residency and become surgeons. What's the difference then?? I know DO schools have lower so called "standard" than MD, but do DO guys go to same residency programs as MD guys??? Do DO guys get paid less than MD doing the same stuff?

😕😕

Serious?
 
If you ever hit the search button, you'll find that most DOs are unemployed.
Go Caribbean. Go.
 
"I don't want to start an MD v. DO thread, but which one is better, MD or DO? Not trolling srs."
 
was going to image bomb this thread, but it's nice to see that the internet is the internet wherever you go.
