one of my friends applying to DO schools says that someone told him its possible to get the MD title by doing some extra procedure after getting DO. anyone know what he's talking about?

of course it is possible with some extra money and leg work, but why would your friend want to such a thing??? I have a bad feeling that this thread is going to turn into another DO vs. MD "discussion"...

Osteopathic students, physicians and surgeons in the United States are eligible to take either or both."
That's from an article that PublicHealth recommended the other day. Here's the link: http://www.aacom.org/om/om-kuchera.html

I don't agree with this statement at all. If someone wants to be a doctor then they should explore any and all options.Originally posted by labruy69
If you can't get into an MD school, don't be a doctor.

wow... are you really gonna become a doctor? you have poor social communication skills, and yes, i agree with popoy, you cannot seem to determine the actual meaning being conveyed... i.e. you completely took his statement out of context and did not seem to comprehend it. i fully agree with him. please reconsider snide remarks against your peers just trying to be helpful to the community and reconsider becoming a doctor.
