You guys realize that a Osteopathic doctor is actually a licensed physician right?
Most of these morons don't know about the ACGME merger, which means that MD's and DO's will compete for the same residencies rather than having separate residencies. From the osteopaths I've spoken too, this is a tacit admission by the medical governing bodies that there are no longer any major differences in the medical education offered between allopathic and osteopathic schools. I interviewed at the only DO school in the nation that also offers a dual degree Ph.D (at least at the time I was interviewing), and I couldn't pick out what was different between the MD curriculum and the DO curriculum other than the osteopathic stuff. No clue where this anti-DO stuff is coming from, honestly.

Well there is truth to DO schools having plenty of students who couldn’t get into MD schools. So the stigma surrounding them will remain but there’s also plenty of that don’t realize they’re legitimate doctors. Every decent sized hospital will have at least a few DOs.

There’s not much difference between the curriculum of Caribbean med schools and US allopathic ones either.
There is however a big difference between the quality of matriculants and the quality of products of the schools. The same is the case with Allopathic vs. Osteopathic med schools. There are exceptions of course, but the averages are lower for osteopathic, plus almost nobody that has an allopathic option for enrollment picks an osteopathic school.
