The only major difference between the two are: 1. They receive training in osteopathic medicine in medical school and some in residency. 2. The admission requirements to a DO school are not as rigorous as MD schools.

And application of the scientific method is even less relevant.

Just said something similar to somebody when they said he was a osteopath, except for the work part. . Also added just having a MD doesn’t mean they are a reliable doctor.

My doctor is a DO and the practice has both MDs and DOs on staff. I don't see any difference in quality of care. My DO has never prescribed a manipulation for anything - even when I went to her with a back problem. I doubt she ever does them.

Do people think osteopathic physician and chiropractor mean the same thing?
-
Probably. I find that unless people are working or studying in those spaces, they don't know the difference.

Mostly what has been said above. A friend of mine is in DO med school as a second choice from a lot of traditional med schools he applied to. He commented that the manipulation stuff was wonky (no evidence) & required, but otherwise what you said.

On that note, there are an equal number of Covidiot DOs as there are MDs. One example: Ronny Jackson.
