For those of you who don't know, I earned my MD from a California medical school.

對於你們這些不知道的人來說，我從加州醫學院獲得了醫學博士學位。

You can learn more about my own story on my vlog channel, linked in the description below.

你可以在我的vlog頻道瞭解更多關於我自己的故事，在下面的描述中鏈接。

Let's first go over what an osteopathic doctor is.

我們先來介紹一下什麼是骨科醫生。

Osteopathy was started in 1874 by Andrew Taylor Still an American doctor.

骨科療法由美國醫生安德魯-泰勒-斯蒂爾於1874年開始。

He coined this practice of medicine as Osteopathy reasoning that the osteon or bone

他把這一醫學實踐稱為骨病，理由是骨子或骨質，是一種很好的治療方法。

was the primary originator of many pathological conditions.

是許多病理情況的主要始作俑者。

Since this origin, the doctor of Osteopathic Medicine or DO degree has always been less common than MD counterpart.

從這一淵源開始，骨科醫學博士或DO學位就一直不如MD對口。

Today, it constitutes approximately 7% of all practicing physicians in the US.

如今，它約佔美國所有執業醫師的7%。

DO doctors have equivalent rights, privileges and responsibilities as those with the more traditional MD

醫學博士與傳統醫學博士擁有同等的權利、特權和責任。

and while less popular than allopathic MD schools, the popularity of do schools has been on the rise.

和雖然不如全科醫學博士學校受歡迎，但做學校的人氣一直在上升。

There are now over 30 DO schools in the US compared to over 140 MD schools.

現在美國有30多所DO學校，而MD學校有140多所。

Constituting approximately 20% of all enrolled medical students.

佔所有在校醫學生的20%左右。

So what's the difference between an MD and a DO?

那麼醫學博士和醫學博士有什麼區別呢？

Let's start with the curriculum.

先說說課程。

Osteopathic medical school curricula are nearly identical to the allopathic medical schools.

骨科醫學院的課程設置與全科醫學院幾乎相同。

Just like allopathic medical schools,

就像對立面醫學院一樣。

the first two preclinical years are focused on building a core foundation of medicine in the classroom.

前兩年的臨床前重點是在課堂上打好醫學的核心基礎。

The latter two years constitute a medical students clerkships

後兩年是醫學生的實習期。

with training in similar specialties to allopathic medical schools.

與全科醫學院類似的專業培訓；

Including Internal Medicine, OBGyne, Pediatrics, Family Medicine, Surgery, Psych etc.

包括內科、婦產科、兒科、全科、外科、心理科等。

However, in addition, DO schools provide 300 to 500 hours in the study of hands-on manual medicine

但此外，DO學校還提供300至500個小時的手工醫學實踐學習。

referred to as osteopathic manipulative medicine or OMM, for short.

稱為整骨手法醫學，簡稱OMM。

The thought is that this body manipulation can bring about systemic healing.

認為這種身體操作可以帶來系統性的治療。

This is largely an antiquated idea with many osteopathic physicians moving away from these pre scientific ideas.

這在很大程度上是一種過時的觀念，很多骨科醫生已經遠離了這些前科學的觀念。

Some of my friends are in DO medical schools

我有些朋友在DO醫學院

and while I can say that some of the manipulation is credible and impressive,

雖然我可以說，有些操作是可信的，令人印象深刻。

some of it is absurd quackery such as craniosacral therapy.

有些是荒謬的庸醫，如顱骶療法。

In craniosacral therapy, the thought is that light touches by the practitioner over certain bony prominences

在顱骶療法中，認為醫師在某些骨性突出物上的輕觸。

can alter the flow of cerebrospinal fluid.

可以改變腦脊液的流動。

Definitely not buying that one.

絕對不買那個。

Next, let's talk about exams. To get into an osteopathic medical school, you still have to take the MCAT.

接下來，我們說說考試。要想進入骨科醫學院，還是要考MCAT。

However, in osteopathic medical school, you take the COMLEX exam rather than the USMLE.

然而，在骨科醫學院，你要參加COMLEX考試，而不是USMLE考試。

DO students can also opt to take the USMLE step exams

DO的學生也可以選擇參加USMLE步驟考試。

if they do desire to enter an MD residency after completing medical school.

如果他們確實希望在完成醫學院學業後進入醫學博士住院醫師培訓。

But the more important thing to note when comparing MD and DO schools

但比較MD和DO學校時，更要注意的是

is not the exams during Medical School

不是醫學院期間的考試

but rather the competitiveness of exam scores in getting into Medical School.

而是考分在進入醫學院的競爭力。

DO program matriculants have lower average MCAT scores and lower average GPAs

DO項目的預科生平均MCAT成績較低，平均GPA較低。

If you're not competitive for traditional allopathic medical schools,

如果你對傳統的全科醫學院沒有競爭力。

then osteopathic medical schools are a great option

那麼骨科醫學院是一個很好的選擇。

and this brings us to the next point which is the downsides of an osteopathic degree.

這就涉及到下一點，那就是骨科學位的弊端。

Unfortunately, the DO isn't respected to the same degree as an MD.

不幸的是，DO並沒有像MD一樣受到尊重。

Anyone who tells you otherwise is either not telling you the truth or is not in touch with a reality.

凡是跟你說不是這樣的人，要麼是沒有跟你說實話，要麼是沒有接觸到一個現實。

Considering osteopathic medical schools cover the same content as allopathic medical schools

考慮到骨科醫學院與全科醫學院涵蓋的內容是一樣的。

and then some more,

然後再來一些。

there is no good reason for the DO to be less respected than the MD. However, this is the reality of the situation.

醫學博士沒有充分的理由比醫學博士更受尊重。然而，這就是現實的情況。

I postulate that the lesser respect for the DOs originates from two factors.

我推測，對民政部門的尊重程度較低，有兩個原因。

First, it's less competitive to get into DO schools

首先，進入DO學校的競爭力較小

and most of the strongest, most competitive applicants go to allopathic MD schools.

和大多數最強，最有競爭力的申請者去對症醫學博士學校。

The second factor is the questionable or non-existent scientific basis of some practices

第二個因素是一些做法的科學依據值得懷疑或不存在。

such as the craniosacral therapy,

如顱骶療法。

I talked about earlier in which you alter the flow of cerebrospinal fluid.

我前面說到你改變了腦脊液的流向。

Now what this translates for you is if you go to a DO school, your options may be limited when it comes to residency.

現在，這對你來說，轉化為你的是，如果你去DO學校，你的選擇可能會受到限制，當它居住。

In some specialties such as plastic surgery, it is nearly impossible to match if you have a DO.

在一些專業，如整形外科，如果你有一個DO，幾乎不可能匹配。

So for example, the year I matched into plastic surgery residency,

所以舉個例子，我匹配到整形外科住院醫師的那一年。

I believe there was only one osteopathic medical student who matched into plastics as well

我相信只有一個骨科醫學生也配到了塑膠行業

and this was considered a huge deal,

而這被認為是一個巨大的交易。

but that being said, if you are interested in primary care, it will make much less of a difference.

但話雖如此，如果你對初級保健感興趣，它的差別就會小很多。

That is unless you're shooting for a top internal medicine program.

除非你是在拍一個頂尖的內科項目。

These top internal medicine programs are also very competitive and DOs are at a sizeable disadvantage.

這些頂尖的內科項目競爭也非常激烈，而DO在其中處於相當大的劣勢。

So now that we've gone over the differences between the MD and the DO,

所以，現在我們已經走過了醫學博士和醫學博士的區別。

let's go over who osteopathic medical schools would be a good fit for.

我們來看看骨科醫學院適合哪些人。

First, if you are interested in primary care or other less competitive specialties, a DO may be a good option.

首先，如果你對基層醫療機構或其他競爭力較弱的專業感興趣，DO可能是一個不錯的選擇。

Be aware however that you may be limited from getting into a top residency program.

但是要注意，你可能會被限制進入一個頂級的住院醫師項目。

Second if you're interested in OMM,

第二如果你對OMM感興趣。

osteopathic medical school is the place to learn it

整形醫學院是學習它的地方。

and third, if your GPA and MCAT are sub-optimal,

第三，如果你的GPA和MCAT都不理想。

it may be more challenging to gain acceptance to a traditional allopathic medical school.

要獲得傳統對立療法醫學院的錄取可能更具挑戰性。

Osteopathic medical schools are a great option to increase your chances of receiving that acceptance.

骨科醫學院是一個很好的選擇，可以增加你收到該錄取的機會。

Now if you need help with your medical school application

現在如果你需要幫助你的醫學院申請

and you want to maximize your chances of getting into a top allopathic or osteopathic medical school,

而你想最大限度地提高你進入頂級對症或整骨醫學院的機會。
