Hey guys, if anyone has some idea about this, some input would be greatly appreciated.
I was looking at the match results recently and began wondering whether there will be difference among those who completed the ACGME residencies vs. AOA residencies in the job market. I understand that with the new rule, AOA residents cannot enter ACGME fellowships, but will there be practicing limitations due to one completing an AOA residency vs ACGME residency?

no.

no.

Thanks. So I guess once license is obtained and you have board certification, it does not matter. Btw, I was asking about both sides, not "are DOs limited in practicing rights." 🙂

you may have some discrimination from an individual but not in general. An example would be a certain orthopedic group may not take DO graduates, but it is only because they are douches, not because you are limited in any way.

👍 Love your post

Keep in mind it is against the law in every state for a health facility to differentiate between MDs and DOs.
