Help Spread the DO Message

With the passage of recent health reform legislation, granting all Americans access to health care, the osteopathic medical profession has an opportunity to educate the public about DOs and osteopathic medicine.
Here’s one way we can join together now to help spread that message.

The AOA has created a 30-second video on the DO option, airing now on network television in Chicago, which can be shared with countless members of the public with just a few clicks of the mouse. If you are a member of Facebook, Twitter, MySpace or other social media sites, you can share this video with all of your contacts by simply viewing the video on the AOA’s YouTube Channel and selecting “Share.” If you are not a member of these sites, or even if you are, you can also just send the link to the video through your e-mail.

Today’s Health Video: DOs

Whether you share the video on social media sites or simply send the link to your friends, you can help spread awareness of the DO option during this time of great change in our health care system. Thank you for taking the time to support the osteopathic medical profession.

I have one additional question concerning this matter. Is it actually okay if we refer to DOs as "osteopathic medical doctors" since their degree stands for "doctor of osteopathic medicine?" Sometimes (as recently as 6 hours ago to be exact) I catch myself saying that a DO is a type of medical doctor because I consider the terms "physician" and "medical doctor" to be so synonymous in meaning but I do not know if this counts as "official" terminology or if such terminology has been endorsed by the AOA.

Larry,
When are you going to allow a 1DO,1 vote for a DO degree change to MD or MD,DO? It's time Dr Wickless. -MDDO
