Has anyone written a similiar secondary essay as their personal statement? It seems that a lot of secondaries ask why you want to be a physician and I addressed that in my personal statement already.

If the prompt is similar, reiterate portions of your personal statement, but try to incorporate things that you weren't able to include or that you had to condense to meet the length requirement. You definitely don't want to submit a carbon copy though.

A lot of the secondaries ask you why you want to be an osteopathic physician, so customize your essay to address this question. Also, I ended up just expanding upon some points in my primary application essay as required.
