KansasCOM

As the first osteopathic medical school in Kansas, our mission is to train the physician of the future to provide effective, empathic, and innovative care.

At the Student Clubs & Organizations Fair, students explored academic interest groups, service organizations, and cultural clubs. We’re grateful to our student leaders who make campus life vibrant and welcoming for everyone #MedSchoolLife #MedicalEducation #KansasCOM #FutureDO

Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (DOs) emphasize care for the whole person, & that extends to the community. KansasCOM students discuss the role of DOs beyond the clinic & why volunteering is an important part of their training & growth. #MedStudentVoices #KansasCOM #HereforGood

Histology can be one of the most challenging courses in med school, but it can also be one of the most rewarding. In this student interview, a histology professor shares her path to becoming an educator at KansasCOM. #Histology #KansasCOM #MedicalScience #MedicalEducation

Osteopathic medicine isn’t just something you study, it’s something you live. KansasCOM students volunteered at the Child Advocacy Center in Wichita, painting outdoor play spaces for kids who’ve faced tough circumstances. #KansasCOM #OsteopathicMedicine #HereforGood

Running started as a gap year hobby, but for this future DO, it became a powerful way to care for her mental health in med school. Add a little cleaning to unwind, and she’s found her formula for balance. #MentalHealthMatters #DOJourney #StudentDoctor #KansasCOM

Our Student Association of Military Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons brought together new and returning members to talk about how military service interacts with medical education, residency, and future careers. #SAMOPS #MilitaryMedicine #FuturePhysicians #FutureDO

Eating disorders can be hard to recognize and even harder to talk about. This future DO shares why she’s speaking up, and how her experience shapes the empathetic physician she’s becoming. #EmpathyInMedicine #CompassionateCare #FutureDO #KansasCOM

Our Community Engagement Fair gave our student doctors chances to explore ways to give back to 30 Wichita organizations. We’re proud to see our future physicians embracing community partnerships!
