Osteopathic medicine, founded more than 100 years ago by Andrew Taylor Still,
offers all a whole-person approach, an emphasis on wellness and prevention,
and osteopathic manipulative medicine. Osteopathic physicians serve
in hospitals and clinics across the nation, and have achieved the highest
medical positions in organizations such as the National Institutes of Health,
the U.S. military, professional sports teams, NASA, and in forensic medicine
and research. For more than a quarter of a century, MSUCOM has been a leader in the osteopathic
profession. We were founded in 1969 by act of the Michigan legislature to
meet the need for physicians for our state. Since then, we have grown
and developed such that today we are ranked seventh in the nation among all
medical schools – M.D. and D.O. – for our primary care education. In
addition, we have more funding than any other osteopathic college for research
from the National Institutes of Health, a key index of research success. We are now on the brink of an historic expansion, as we prepare to open
two additional sites for our college. In 2009, pending accreditation,
100 members of our entering class will take their first- and second-year studies
at two sites in southeast Michigan: 50 at the Macomb University Center in
Clinton Township, and 50 at the Detroit Medical Center downtown. This expansion
will serve many objectives, chief of which is to meet the anticipated shortage
of physicians both in Michigan and nationally. In health care, we continue to offer patients the tools and support to preserve
and restore health. We listen to their concerns, we work as partners with
them, and we offer them the unique benefits of osteopathic medicine. Osteopathic
medicine is the medicine of the future that is available today. Thank you for visiting the MSU College of Osteopathic Medicine, and we hope
you’ll enjoy your stay! Best Regards, William D. Strampel, D.O. Directory of Dean's Office Executive Staff
