Why do DO's want to come to MD programs?
If you want to become an orthopedic surgeon, tell the AOA to lobby for some osteopathic only ortho positions.
All DO's do by applying for allopathic spots is continue the resentment of DO's by MD's.
I want to go to an MD program because the training in ACGME programs is so much better than in AOA programs.
As far as lobbying the AOA for GME programs, we've tried. They won't do a thing. Osteopathic GME is withering, and the AOA does nothing.
