While all forms of medicine help to treat the patient, osteopathic medicine takes the full person into account during treatment. Just like the doctor can’t help the family become accepting of the mother’s condition but, only help guide them on the healing journey; osteopathic medicine helps promote the body to self-heal. Every aspect of the patient’s life is considered during treatment consequently, a better understanding of the patient is learned instead of just considering symptoms and ailments. This holistic approach to medicine integrates the patient into their own care and establishes a bond between doctor and patient. I want to be an osteopathic physician due to this holistic approach to medicine. With servicing the community, a deeper understanding of each person is best considered for their treatment
