Hey Pre-Allopath's,
I was just wondering if you all had an opinion already on osteopathic medicine and osteopathic docs. I actually wanted to be a MD when I was in undergrad, and I didn't even know what a DO was. Then I found out that I had a choice to make b/w DO and MD. Did any of you examine the differences b/w the two before deciding on allopathy? If so, what influenced your decision?
If you haven't examined the differences, why not? Either way, I would at least look into osteopathy just to see what it entails - to see what the difference is b/w you and the DO doc that you might be working beside someday.
Don't think that I'm trying to convert anyone, I just think it is best to examine your options. I'm just curious about what you all think on the matter, thanks for the feedback.
