Last morning in Arlington, TX. Another Educating Leaders has come to an end. What an amazing time spent with our osteopathic medical education community! So many individuals committed to leading with their heart and backing it up with the science.❤️ See you in Vegas next year!

“People carry around so much weight. It’s often hidden on the inside and you’re not going to know it if you don’t ask.” Shane Speights, DO, AACOM Board Chair during compassion in medicine conversation @ Joint Dean/Student Leadership lunch @ Educating Leaders 2025.

#PrimaryCare is the backbone of our healthcare system, and DOs are stepping up to meet the need. In this letter to the editor, I discuss how osteopathic #medschools are preparing future physicians to serve communities across the country.

Tomorrow is #NationalRuralHealthDay—a reminder of our duty to improve care for rural America. In my latest blog post, I share how osteopathic medicine’s rural roots inspire us to lead today and why the Community TEAMS Act is vital. Read here: https://t.co/3u2qu5BWs4

Kudos to these colleges of osteopathic medicine for creating a learning environment designed to instill today's students & tomorrow's physician workforce with a mindset oriented toward reducing health disparities and promoting health equity!

Thought provoking work by Ed Stiles, DO potentially demonstrating how body-mind-spirit interact, affecting presentation, treatment & outcomes. Does our system promote & reward for this effort or dissuade it? Whole-person care is a mindset. https://t.co/wlNvpbOA6i via @AOAforDOs

Wonderful session on Primary Care and Health 4.0 moderated by PAFAMS President Dr. Marcos Núñez in Basel, CH last week. Witnessed a worldwide community arguing for greater focus on PC to improve global health! Looking forward to adding the DO perspective to future conversations.

Perhaps we need to consider research on human motivation described in Daniel Pink's work, 'Drive' as we think about this information. Bad payment structure. Poor use of incentives. Should we be surprised this isn't working well for doctor or patient?

Excited to see this topic getting needed attention! Innovation happens when diversity of thought exists. We need innovative solutions to our nation's healthcare issues & the DO community brings a different perspective to the table! https://t.co/nKlCp9zOsG

I am immensely proud to see our colleges achieve such prestigious national recognition, particularly as, for the first time, the top 14 #medschools for graduates practicing in #primarycare are all #osteopathic institutions. Congratulations! Learn more: https://t.co/aZv7XfT5xI

Congratulations to Teresa Hubka, DO on becoming the 128th President of the American Osteopathic Association! Looking forward to the year ahead as our community celebrates its 150th anniversary--building upon a remarkable history as we move into the future! #osteopathicmedicine

Wonderful AT Still lecture by former AACOM Board Chair Thomas Cavalieri, DO @ the recent AOA House of Delegates outlining opportunities for osteopathic medicine to improve the care of an aging population in our broken healthcare system. #healthyaging #osteopathicmedicine

Wonderful news! I am so happy to see the @AAIMOnline supporting COMLEX-USA equivalency in residency applications for DOs. This reflects their commitment to holistic review practices and recognizing the value of #osteopathic physicians in IM residency programs. #ChooseDO

While celebrating the success of our students in the 2024 Match (92.3%!), we can't forget the deans, faculty and staff supporting them throughout the journey. A dedicated community has their backs as they transition to residency. Thank you for all you do! https://t.co/Ea1ej2SdgX
