If so what kinds and is it any more difficult then being an MD surgeon?

The search feature is your friend.
They can and do. I have worked with many good D.O. surgeons. 👍
1: do try to use the search feature...many have asked the same question.
2: DOs can do ANYTHING an MD can do. The can even apply to MD residencies. The one and only difference is DOs receive extra training in OMM. Do a google search for osteopathic orthopedic surgeons or plastic surgeons...see if that gets u anywhere
lol think the stick isnt working
Nope sorry DO's cant do surgery... DO stands for "Don't Operate"..

People who ask this question = people who show up to interviews without researching the school = people who don't get into medical schools and wonder why = trolls = People who ask this question = people who show up to interviews without researching the school = people who don't get into medical schools and wonder why = trolls = People who ask this question = people who show up to interviews without researching the school = people who don't get into medical schools and wonder why...
Yes I see now, sorry about the OP wasn't thinking straight there. I guess the harassment was expected here...
Meh, some days, when threads like these show up, people give the benefit of the doubt but when this happens,
it's hard to justify why you would still ask the question. Hopefully this is a lesson learned.
