It is our problem. I don't see how it is yours or why other people here are going crazy attacking DO schools. In the end, we already have regulations to limit schools by requiring a certain number of matches to stay accredited. All these "crap" schools are still better than the unknown FMG or the average IMG and none have damaged the overall percentage of residency matches for us. Again, these are our problems. I don't see why so many MD here feel the need to bash and criticize over something that they already believe doesn't affect them. I certainly don't care if the Caribbean opens 20 new schools.
Among patients who prefer an MD, Caribbean probably has more value. They're still completing an ACGME accredited residency.
