My doctor is a DO. He is in a practice started when I was a teenager, by two other DOs. There are also a couple of MDs and PAs and NPs, and women and men so I have a choice, depending on what I'm being seen for.
In my view, I like the DOs because they look at the whole person, not just current individual symptoms. My medical history matters, and they ask a lot of questions about my life in general too. Also, I was there once for something else and my doc saw that my hips weren't exactly lined up so he cracked me in half and I felt all around better. (Really, the back cracking was awesome.)
