With opportunities for 3rd and 4th year students, 13 residency programs, and 10 internship programs, our commitment to maintaining the heritage and future of the osteopathic profession continues to be our focus.

New services, including a state of the art Open-Heart Surgery program, are an important part of Doctors Hospital, the hub for hospital operations and expansion opportunities.

Affiliations with local level 1 trauma centers, Nationwide Children's Hospital and Grant Medical Center have enhanced our resources and contributions to providing quality education at Doctors Hospital.

Our training programs support faculty who are dedicated to continuing our strong osteopathic heritage with varying approaches to medical practice. We offer you extensive didactic training within your own specialty, increasing responsibility for patient care, and the opportunity to see patients in an office setting as well as an inpatient setting.
