I am planning on getting a letter from a DO who is a pathologist. Would I be better off getting a letter from a physician in primary care? Does it really make a difference?

No

What's the best way to go about getting a DO letter of rec? I'm applying this cycle, but I only have MD letters and I want to get some DO letters.

Get them the same way you got the MD letters.

Yellow pages and phone calls! 👍

Ok thanks. I actually got the MD letters through physicians I had known for quite awhile, but I don't mind letting my fingers do the walking if that works for DO letters.
