I will say this, I would rather learn osteopathic medicine than any type of western medicine as a general practice. I personally cannot stand the emphasis western medicine has on treating symptons rather than the actual problem. Of course I understand why, and know it is all tied into the multi-dollar pharm industry where the more meds that get prescribed and the less underlying problems that get fixed, the more the medical community makes as a whole. The whole western medicine system pisses me off and I would most definitely be an osteopathic doctor and live a better healthier life for it than a typical western doctor.
