Do any of the DO schools have their own hospitals?

Members don't see this ad.
 
From what I understand, LECOM is the only one.
 
North Texas does...but it aint big. None of them are. UMDNJ and MSU have probably the best groups of hospitals.

Millcreek Hospital is associated with LECOM. There are lots of hospitals associated with LECOM and more are being added each year.

Kirksville has a hospital (on-campus) associated with the school but that is one of many as well. DMU has a hospital on-campus as well.

MSUCOM has it's own teaching hospital.

Most D.O. schools have many hospital sites in their network.
 
Actually, I think that is one of LECOM's strongest points - its affiliations.

Here is a list of OPTI's for all the osteopathic schools.

Opportunities, Directory of Osteopathic Postdoctoral Education Programs,
Supplemental OPTI Affiliation List
Updated: May 2, 2001


Locations of Osteopathic Postdoctoral Training Institutions (OPTIs)

Listed in this document are the hospitals that are affiliated with the sixteen AOA-accredited Osteopathic Postdoctoral Training
Institutions (OPTIs). Hospitals in an OPTI provide postdoctoral training or student clerkships (3 rd and 4 th year medical school). Each
hospital routinely hosts postdoctoral trainees (or students) from other affiliated training sites within the OPTI.

OPTIs play a fundamental role in osteopathic medical education and training. OPTIs administratively support osteopathic postdoctoral
training programs approved by the American Osteopathic Association (AOA). Hospitals must be affiliated with an OPTI in order to
provide AOA-approved postdoctoral training.

Healthcare is changing rapidly. Hospital mergers, the establishment of new training programs and other hospital events can have a
significant impact on postdoctoral training. Consequently, the AOA plans to update this listing at least twice a year. For the most current
information, contact the OPTI directly. This is a supplement document to Opportunities, Directory of Osteopathic Postdoctoral
Education Programs.

Freeedom, may I ask where you went to school?
 
nope...

I haven't even posted on this topic?!
 
Thanks for all the replies...
Amra, that post was great--thank-you!
:)
 
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that LECOM and Millcreek are run by the same people and pretty much are one in the same in terms of...I can't think of the word, but I think you know what I mean. Are the other DO schools like that too? I'm really not sure. I just remembering when that came up when I interviewed last year.
