Would you choose a MD or DO as your primary doctor
DOs use what is called osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT). OMT is a technique in which the DOs use their hands to diagnose injury and illness, giving special attention to the joints, bones, muscles, and nerves. Manipulations improve circulation, which in turn, creates a normal nerve and blood supply, enabling the body to heal itself.
My first Dr. was an MD, and the one I have now is a DO. I am going to switch back to the MD because his method of providing care is much better than the DO.
I prefer M.D.'s because they try more methods than the D.O
The D.O I used before down played my illness. He didn't even do
any testing. They should only work in 3 rd world countries.
M.D cause then your sure that the doctor went all the way through schooling to collage. And you wouldnt want to be in a life or death situation and have a no brainer curing you, WOULD YOU?
It really is the person and not the type of doctorate. There are MD's I wouldn't let touch me with a 10-foot pole, and DO's I trust very much. The important thing is that you feel comfortable around the person, you like his/her style, and that he/she seems knowledgeable and is willing to answer questions.
DO programs are easier to get into, but their training is just as rigorous, and they are required to do residencies at hospitals just like MD's are. They can also specialize in anything, including surgery, that an MD would. The US government allows DO's to work as government doctors.
DO's are very good with musculoskeletal disorders, as this is a focus of their training in addition to primary care.
