Доктор остеопатической медицины

Osteopathic medicine is a distinct branch of medical practice in the United States. Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine, or DOs, are fully licensed physicians who practice in all areas of medicine and can specialize in specific areas of patient care, such as family medicine, internal medicine, emergency medicine, surgery, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, and all other specialties. DOs emphasize a whole-person approach to treatment and patient care. The osteopathic philosophy of medicine sees an interrelated unity in all systems of the body, with each working with the other to heal in times of illness.

At CHSU-COM, student doctors receive specific training in the musculoskeletal system and learn about osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) using Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) as an additional way to treat pain, prevent injury, and complement the treatment of many ailments. Our innovative, active learning, curriculum highlights a systems-based, clinically integrated model and includes medical Spanish, culinary medicine, population health research and interactive technologies.
