Naturopath or Osteopath?

[suzie4399]

This may be the worst question ever... But what is the difference between a Naturopathic Doctor and an Osteopathic Doctor?

One is a fully licensed physician, the legal and professional equivalent of the Medical Doctor (MD) in all 50 States, the District of Columbia, and the US Military - and enjoying all the rights and priviledges (and responsibilities) that MDs have.

The other is an osteopath 🙂

I also believe their philosophies are different. For Osteopathic medicine, goto www.aacom.org for more information on the profession and history.
