Our Leadership

Ohio’s DOs, residents, and students are leading at every level, ensuring our state’s voice is heard nationally, statewide, and locally. Much of this work happens behind the scenes, but the commitment to advancing osteopathic medicine in Ohio is constant and unwavering.

One Osteopathic Ohio

Building a Stronger Membership

One Osteopathic Ohio is our call for every DO—member and non-member to unite in preserving the legacy of strong, fair representation that has protected osteopathic medicine in our state for decades. With nearly 9,000 licensed DOs in Ohio, our footprint is growing rapidly, and our collective voice must grow with it. Whether you’re a family physician or a specialist, we need every DO to stand with us as One Osteopathic Ohio to keep our profession visible, valued, and well-represented.

Education

Quality Continuing Medical Education

The OOA, through its charitable arm—the Ohio Osteopathic Foundation—provides high-quality AOA Category 1-A CME at the Ohio Osteopathic Symposium, through webinars, and at adjacent meetings throughout the year. We also promote virtual options such as the VOC CME and The CME Center to ensure Ohio’s DOs have convenient, accessible pathways to stay current. Content is carefully curated to appeal to both Family Physicians and Specialists, ensuring every DO finds relevant, practical education to support their practice.

OOA Advocates for the Profession
