What does DO mean after a doctor of womens health name?

The letters DO after a doctor's name mean that the person is a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine. DOs are licensed to practice medicine and can prescribe medications in all 50 states. They receive the same training as MDs, but they also receive additional training in osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT), which is a hands-on technique that uses gentle pressure and movement to relieve pain and promote healing.
