D.O. stands for doctor of osteopathy, M.D.s are trained in an allopathic model vs an osteopathic model. D.O.s are maybe a little more holistic in their approach. For all intents and purposes, there is little difference. I would feel confident bringing my baby to a D.O. The link below may give you more information. Good luck!
