DOs and MDs do the same things.
lol I grind teeth every time I have to say this.

In FL even Family Medicine doc (MD/DO) can be hospitalist.Are hospitalists/PMR/sports medicine rare as a DO speciality? How does a hospitalist really differ from IM doctor working in a hospital?
From my experience, DOs are not that rare in sports medicine.
And in my experience, there's no such thing as luck.
Sorry, I just had to...

Hospitalists just practice a certain way. Most of them are internal medicine docs. It's not a separate residency or anything, and internal medicine is not hard to match into at all.

I've always imagined Jabba the Hut as a German speaker and it made things 100x funnier.

Your insight serves you well. Bury your feelings deep down, NurWollen. They do you credit, but they could be made to serve the Emperor's of allopathic medicine.And in my experience, there's no such thing as luck.

The fields I most often see performing hospitalist duties are FM and IM. If this is something one wants to pursue, they should pick a residency that has a heavy inpatient focus compared to clinic time.

This list... so true... so, so true. Nothing worse than clinic.

very rare. i would say right up there with unicorns. true story.
kidding kidding. just had to.
There are plenty of DO hospitalists. I will be another in one year when I am done with residency.
There are also plenty of DOs in sports med and PM&R. PM&R actually seems rather popular these days - low key, decent pay, good hours. Just have to get through your prelim year (which can be brutal depending on where you go).
Hospitalists are physicians that do nothing but take care of hospitalized patients. They can be IM, FM, or IM/Ped. Most FM residencies are clinic heavy; many IM are hospital heavy. There are exceptions to both of course with hospital heavy FM and clinic heavy IM. In some programs there are IM tracks you can take that are more outpatient based, women's health based, and hospital based.
