How would you feel about changing the degree from DO to MDo?

I thought with your username, you'd choose DOH

I'd rather see a D.O.M. The I can be a "dumb" doctor.

All kidding aside, I don't really see a need to change it to MDo. Most proponents of a name change cite the need for greater recognizability (is that a word?), and I don't see any name change acheiving that.

No,

because that would imply that I'm an allopathic physician, and I wouldn't want that stigma.

In some parts of the country, people actually prefer osteopaths.....

If you simply have patients that are confused, and don't know who or what you are, then seek pharmacological intervention.

I agree. Let's stick with the name we have. I am proud of this profession. DO is becoming more and more recognizable every day. 👍
