Nowadays with a high number of DOs going to MD residency programs, there isn't too much drop off between then two. Of course how they are taught during medical school is different, but I would trust an MD residency trained DO in primary care settings.

Why just primary care? The are DOs in every field from Peds/IM/FM all the way up to neurosurgery with every stop in between.

Residency is where you learn to be a doctor. I'd trust them if they went to any accredited allopathic residency, completed it, and became board certified.
