[QUOTE="skeeter, post: 114701, member: 439"] My dad saw DOs all his life. They can have "specialties" just as MDs - including oncology. We even had a hospital dedicated specifically to osteopathic practioners, but it was combined with one of our other hospitals about 10 years ago. When my dad was diagnosed with cancer, his doctors didn't "push" all kinds of invasive or heroic treatment at him, but explained things rationally (and realistically) and let him choose what HE wanted to do. For which we have been eternally greatful. There is a DO in practice with the group of OB/GYNs I go to. [/QUOTE]
