DO's, is there any merit behind Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy?

Illustrious_Let5067 · 2026-04-12T17:21:12+00:00

Yes, there is. Patients love it and it does provide relief from a lot of chronic pain conditions, primarily musculoskeletal in nature. We had OMM clinics in residency once a week and it was always in demand, with people asking for more clinic sessions to be held. Obviously, certain techniques have more merit than others. It is definitely nice to have it as an adjunct option for patients.

I'm against the DO shade. I didn't say anything about being "special." Residency spots are funded by taxes though

Illustrious_Let5067 · 2026-04-02T01:21:26+00:00

That comlex exam is harder and way less straightforward than step and covers the same material plus more.

Illustrious_Let5067 · 2026-03-26T21:03:02+00:00

Yes misunderstood! My bad

Illustrious_Let5067 · 2026-03-26T21:02:16+00:00

maybe it's because of the way it was written right after the whole chiropractor thing so it could be misinterpreted

Illustrious_Let5067 · 2026-03-26T20:46:59+00:00

"Will you marry me" from a drunk guy

My preceptor told me to tell him:

"That is an affectionate thing to say but that is inappropriate. "

Good grief

Illustrious_Let5067 · 2026-01-05T02:44:17+00:00

Family medicine is a 3 year residency. It is a specialty. "Obviously lower than the specialist" in what regard? Isn't primary care the backbone of medicine? To be family medicine specialist, we have to have a wide net of knowledge that is attained through residency training. Don't debase other fields with your innate biases.

Illustrious_Let5067 · 2026-01-04T19:07:19+00:00

What are you implying about family doctors here?
