The OMM curriculum is directed toward the development of a primary care physician. VCOM faculty believe that whether the students chooses primary care or a medical specialty, they will benefit from a broad based primary care curriculum and a whole patient approach to care. OMM is an important skills for the primary care physician and is therefore taught throughout the pre-clinical and clinical years. |

steopathic Manipulative Medicine (OMM) is taught throughout the curriculum by faculty physicians who practice primary care and osteopathic medicine and sports medicine. The OMM curriculum is reinforced in the clinical years by providing clinical experiences with VCOM appointed clinical faculty, demonstrating the incorporation of the manipulative medicine skills into clinical practice. Osteopathic manipulative medicine skills are integrated within the various clinical rotations and OMM skills are utilized in some of the clinical experiences as well as taught through workshops in the third year.
