Osteopathic doctors complete four years of medical school, just as medical doctors, and have an additional 300 to 500 hours of training in "hands-on manual medicine," according to the National Institutes of Health.

The osteopathic method is a holistic approach intended to treat the patient as a whole, rather than focus on one system or body part, according NIH.

NIH is hardly an expert on medicine. He's only like a sophomore.

You left out the part where the only people who go to osteopathic schools are people who can't get into the over 100 medical schools in the country. Honest question. Would you want one performing life threatening surgery on you or would you want an MD? A school as good as Auburn should not associate with a second rate program like this.
