An MD is someone who graduated from an accredited medical school, after four years of undergraduate school. A DO graduated from an accredited school of osteopathic medicine, after four years of undergrad. Osteopathic medicine treats the body as a whole and takes a "holistic" approach to medicine (not homeopathic, it's an entirely different animal), whereas an MD tends to treat symptoms. I personally prefer the DO's, but I've worked with and been a patient of some excellent MD's, too. I'll probably get bitch-slapped by someone for saying this, but it's been my PERSONAL experience that the DO's, the one's I've known personally, have more down-to-earth personalities, while the MD's have the egos and the God-complexes. Once again, that's just MY experience. I've studied homeopathic medicine a very little bit, and I won't even try to explain it in depth, but it's an interesting approach, and used with great success more so in Europe. Psychiatry is a branch of medicine just like cardiology, gastroenterology, gynecology, pathology, radiology. etc.
