International recognition

[realruby2000]

Does anyone know if the D.O. degree is recognized outside the US? If for example I wanted to move to the middle east and practice over there, would my D.O. degree be recognized as a medical degree? What about other countries?

The DO degree is not recognized everywhere. In some countries, like the UK, DOs are licensed only to perform osteopathic manipulation.

If you have questions on licensure in other countries, email Robert Ruiz at AACOM about any countries you are interested in.
