Very well-put! I’m glad you spoke on the unique challenges DO students face regarding residency and opportunities to make themselves more competitive. Many residency programs use research as one of the major distinguishing factors between applicants- *on average*, meaningful research opportunities are easier to come by at MD schools. It’s important for premeds to acknowledge this pattern of challenges. In reality, I usually can’t tell if someone is an MD or DO without looking at their badge.

Thank you so much for making this video! I’m a first year D.O. student and find that many people don’t know what a D.O. is 😅. You explained it really well and I appreciated the emphasis on both degrees being the same! Under another KZitem video that covered this topic, I unfortunately found some people did not accept that these degrees were equal. Thanks again for this informative video!

I think your video is amazing... Thank you... I am a non traditional pré med, and I feel like DO is more my thing, not because it's easier to get in, it resonate with my background and my mind... I was the last couple years think of MD, however, lately I believe DO is my calling ... Not sure if I will ever make into any medical school, DO or MD or if I can find a way to pay 😂, anyway, I am not afraid to try... Love your video because you are clear and humble and, usually, I find myself disappointed when I read forums about both, MD or DO, because there is some many folks arrogant with an ignorance that is beyond the possibilities of education. 🙏 Thank you.

Appreciate the honesty in this video. I had the chance to choose between MD and DO programs out of high school and actually chose a DO program because I didn’t have to take the MCAT! After talking with doctors I knew, there’s really no difference and the biggest factor is working hard so you can serve your future patients well! I also thought it would be really cool to have the extra treatment option of OMM. Wish me luck as I just started med school!

This is the first video to acknowledge D.O.'s are at a disadvantage. Now that they have combined residency applications, D.O.'s will be pushed into primary care.

Will not be considered is a bit too far. Have DO colleagues that are cardiologist, dermatologist, and plastics. Still good proportion do something outside of primary care

? At any med school we are told that 50% of what we're taught is wrong - we just don't know which half. So even as an MD I'm not 100 % evidence based. It's like saying you prefer eating from the cooking of one person - although both learned from the exact same cookbook - one just read an extra chapter (which most don't use) To say you'd go to one vs. other misses the entire point of the video. But thanks for the comment.

@@TheMDJourney i think maybe this is a straw man argument. Saying 50% is wrong at an evidence based MD curriculum (which one can only assume is said to be 'wrong' due to lack of current understanding, not the application of the scientific method) VS a known sudo scientific methadology isn't fairly comparing the two. It's kind of like saying astronomy and astrology are equal because we get some things wrong in astronomy science some times. Which is obviously absurd. I know much of the DO curriculum is evidence based, but there's no getting around the fact it's built on the foundations of what is clearly sudo scientific thinking. And this is why it doesn't have the same level of respect. Do you know why the DO doesn't exist in any other country?

I think the idea of call something "sudo" science just because won't fall in the Western reality you probably grownup is kind of forget that most medications on the market and most procedures in medicine come from a question without answer (at the time) and, many times, from nature introduced into a lab... Also, just a note in physics/astrophysics vs astrology, it once was all one and the later is what started the nowadays knowledge (of course, before it all it was pure philosophy, that originated mathematics, after physics and so on but, I won't be able to explain it all here)... I think many folks have a very shallow view of things because they do not adventure outside the comfort zone... In my case, I want to have a doctor as my caregiver that is wise, professional, human and not just a arrogant "know it all", indifferent it be a DO or a MD... Also, did you know that has many other things that other countries do not have either? Like many counties do not have paramedics, many states inside USA don't even need to have a formal training for it; did you know that MD's for long used to believe that shock a women and cut her genitals would keep her more "family oriented"? It's not so long ago, in the 40s you could get "diet pills and happy pills" in the USA that was based in cocaine and, now, we all know it is not correct... A person that only believe and trust what in front of him/her is not much different than a horse with a master... Everyone is welcome to it's opinion and must be free to voice it, however, if I was to pick my doctor's (trust me I have used many and now undergoing pre-med) I would choose one that is not a "horse".

@@GraemeTaylor oh, a note to my post before to you... You are 100% wrong about "United States be the only country that has DO school's", there are many other countries, including in the European continent that has DO formation... You confused it with the fact that the United States won't accept ANY other DO to practice or transfer to here (usa), however, if one become a DO in the USA, you can fully practice in over 50 countries. The reason for it is that DO in the USA has not only the osteopathic education but the added education of a regular MD only, therefore, the other countries DO has limitations in education... In sum, all the information of this video was correct as a DO will have same education as the MD plus the osteopathics knowledge... FYI, many countries do not have a medical education (MD or DO) that is post bachelor's degree but, it is the bachelor itself, I know it because I have lived in other countries besides United States and they can still (depending of the in-between country agreements) work in the USA as long as the education is recognized by the boards. So just do your research... 👍

Learn to spell pseudo. People might actually take you seriously when you say you are interested in evidence based medicine.
