Neither. Both MD's and DO's a licensed to practice medicine within the United States. Both may perform surgery, prescribe medicine, and any other duties that are traditionally associated with the role of a physician. The MD and DO degrees function as a equally valid forms of medical education.

The author above, ID1095923637, is correct. However, ID1095923637, wouldn't you agree that the DO should change it's name to MD,DO or MD just for public awareness. Hell, most DOs don't even do manipulation anymore and MDs and DOs alike, both practice wholistic medicine these days. Hell, even the founder of osteopathic medicine, Dr. AT Still, MD, DO went by the initials MD,DO. Time to change the degree to MD,DO, otherwise the rise of the DNPs are coming and soon to compete in the marketplace against the MDs and DOs alike.
