re: Oppose the proposed ULM School of Osteopathic Manipulative "Medicine"

While I'll agree it's a "doctor". It would be good for ULM and the area in general.

Yes. No MD patients have bad outcomes.

You must be a lobbyist based on your sad position against increasing healthcare options in rural Louisiana

Having this in Monroe will impact your life, how???

I graduated from ULM. Our professors included a great variety of medical professionals, from pharmacologists to neurologists. They already have an extensive rotation program for pharmacists and it will be easy to incorporate DO student rotations into the existing relationships they have with facilities across the state.

I'm sure most physicians in the area will appreciate having the DO students rotating and helping out.

ULM will probably produce very effective DO's. You've offered no evidence of harm other than to your skewed sense of dignity.

I went to ULM and had a 4.0 one summer session.

What he said.

You apparently do not understand everyone's role in healthcare & the importance of IPE/ IPP. YOU are the reason some patients have much poorer outcomes because you look at your degree as far superior to other healthcare professionals & do not respect their role in healthcare. Sometimes humility goes a long way. Contrary to your beliefs, humility & respect would be beneficial long term in terms of "patient safety" and financially- since that is the real reason you care so much about this topic.

Cause they have to get their white coat first.
