D.O. is Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine, a graduate of a different medical training program with licensure as a different type of medical professional than an M.D., or Medical Doctor. However, for most purposes the training and licensure are equal to one another. A difference in practice is that a DO (aka Doctor of Osteopathy) is also trained in osteopathic medicinewhich includes theories and procedures of musculoskeletal manipulation in which Medical Doctors are not specifically trained. The basic medical training and practice is comparable, however.
