What Is Osteopathic Medicine?

November 12, 2021 | 11 AM - 12PM | Osteopathic medicine is the fastest-growing medical field in the U.S., according to the U.S. Bureau of Health Professions.

Today, more than 25 percent of medical students in the United States are training to be osteopathic physicians. Learn more about this fascinating field of primary care medicine from Malibu-based UCLA Health primary care physician Rose Milanes-Kopp, DO.
