Duties and Responsibilities: Osteopathic physicians use accepted methods of diagnosing and treating injuries and diseases. Osteopaths use a hands-on approach to medicine and frequently manipulate or palpate as part of diagnosis and treatment. The majority of osteopaths are general practitioners, family practitioners, or emergency medicine specialists. 

Salary: $110,00.

Education: Students should take the most challenging high school courses available in science, math, and English. After three or four years of college, prospective physicians must attend medical school.  Undergraduate requirements for admission to all medical schools include one year of basic chemistry, one year of organic chemistry, one year of biology, and one year of physics.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?

No I wouldn't like to be one, because it does not catch my attention.
