    bullet point  Introduction
     
     
    The practice of medicine is about treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. This philosophy is not new to UPMC McKeesport and its Osteopathic Residency.
    Candidates will only be considered if they are committed to entering the dually accredited Family Medicine Residency at the 2nd year level upon completion of the internship. In addition to the AOA internship, the AOA accredited Family Medicine Residency will lead eligible candidates to be certified by the AOA and The American Board of Family Medicine.
