Colorado Society of Osteopathic Medicine
Osteopathic Medical Student Coalition (OMSC)
OMSC is the newly established student chapter of the Colorado Society of Osteopathic Medicine. We function as a student component of CSOM with representation on the Executive Board ensuring the cumulative voice of the students of osteopathic medicine is part of each discussion. OMSC brings into one organization the students of medicine enrolled at fully accredited institutions granting Doctorates of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) in the state of Colorado. We serve as a student voice in the community to promote public health and the art and science of osteopathic medicine; promote high standards of osteopathic education; encourage active participation in the legislative process to advocate for our patients and our profession; and ensure that the evolution of the osteopathic principles shall be an ever-growing tribute to Andrew Taylor Still, M.D., D.O. who made possible osteopathy as a science.
Membership is FREE to all enrolled Colorado DO candidates.
Want to get involved? Students are free and can sign up by contacting Kimberly St. John. Contact: Kimberly St. John, OMSC Chair kimberly.stjohn@co.rvu.edu
As members of the Osteopathic profession, in an effort to instill loyalty and strengthen the profession, we recall the tenets on which this profession was founded. The dynamic interaction of mind, body and spirit, the body’s ability to heal itself and the primary role of the musculoskeletal system and preventive medicine as the key to maintain health. We recognize the work our predecessors have accomplished in building the profession and we commit ourselves to continuing that work. Therefore:
I pledge to
Provide compassionate, quality care to my patients,
Partner with them to promote health,
Display integrity and professionalism throughout my career,
Advance the philosophy, practice and science of osteopathic medicine,
Continue life-long learning,
Support my profession with loyalty in action, word and deed, and
Live each day as an example of what an osteopathic physician should be.
