I have heard that DOs are mostly relegated to residencies in Family Medicine (FM) or in Internal Medicine (IM). (Actually, either would be acceptable to me.)
On the other hand, I am interested in aneshesiology. I looked around at some local hospitals and found cases where the surgeon was a DO and cases where the anesth was a DO as well! Check out Dr. Patterson.

So help me out. What gives with the DO v. MD battle for residencies/specialites? Was I able to bust the myth that DOs can't get sought after specialties by doing a cursory search of local hospitals that took 15 minutes OR am I just plain wrong about this?
