What DO schools require that you shadow a DO and/or obtain a recommendation from a DO? Additionally, I am having a very hard time finding a DO in my area where there is no shortage of hospitals. Any idea how to locate one? thanks!

Also, since you're new, the search function works very well in this forum, and most of your questions will have been answered, to a varying degree, in the past. I'm not discouraging you from posting at all, but rather pointing out a helpful feature. 🙂
