> Dear Ruben, Serge here. I am writing to ask your learned opinion about my daughter going to Doctor of Osteopathy School instead of Medical School. Now understand. I am soooo stupid I thought Osteopathy had something to do with selling form-fitting Orthopedic shoe wear. You understand? At the end of her learning, the D.O.s and M.D.s go together to internship and residency. Meaning, of course, cutting into live humans. Well, presumably, live people. Or humans. Or something alive. She asked me if I would allow her to scalpel me. All I could think to say was, if you lick the peanut butter off the knife first. And the strawberry jam. Opinions about D.O. vs. M.D.?

I've been taught that today the difference between DOs and MDs is
minimal. Of course, as a rule, ODs are focused on skelatal health and
injuries, like the guys that cast your arm when you break it. But it is
not a strict line. I wouldn't hesitate if the financing was right and
she is comfortable in the school they are chosing.
