History and Origin of Osteopathic Medical Education

Oliver J

The osteopathic curriculum consists of all the traditional disciplines: anatomy, behavioural science, biochemistry, biostatistics, embryology, genetics, histology, immunology, microbiology, pathology, pathophysiology, pharmacology and physiology. Osteopathic medical students often study the same textbooks used in allopathic schools, and was taught by DOs as well as MDs. However, unlike their allopathic counterparts, osteopathic students also spend at least 200 hours of pre-clinical education learning about the history of osteopathic medicine, the core osteopathic principles and philosophies, and OMM.
