The growth in the popularity of complementary and alternative medicine therapies in the United States has been phenomenal. Medical schools are grappling with changing their medical school curriculums to sufficiently acquaint their students with these therapies. The objective of this study is to document the prevalence, scope, and diversity of U.S. osteopathic medical school education in complementary and alternative medicine and to compare the results with a previous study of U.S. allopathic medical schools. The data was collected through surveys sent to the 19 osteopathic medical schools in the United States. The results highlight the need for a comprehensive core curriculum in complementary and alternative medicine so that medical schools might adequately equip future physicians for private practice.
