Osteopathic Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine

This is a September Application Cycle specialty. Click Here for timeline information.
The AAO (American Academy of Osteopathy) has been working with the individual ONMM programs across the country to be a common information source to compare data and preferences among the programs. The programs are encouraged to update their own information page on the AAO website, including links to further information. Visit the AAO’s website for more information. Go to www.academyofosteopathy.org where you can find links for Residency Program Catalog, residency openings, as well as many others useful links.

Of note, as mentioned at the beginning, there are 3 main entry pathways for the ONMM programs.

ONMM1 (1st year entry pathway) brings you into a standard 3-year residency program. This is a stand-alone residency preparing you to become board certified in ONMM as a stand-alone physician specialty.

ONMM2 (2nd year entry pathway) allows entry into the ONMM program after completing training in a general 1st year (e.g., after a traditional rotating internship / transition year).

ONMM3 (3rd year entry pathway) brings you into a unique pathway to become board eligible in the stand-alone specialty of ONMM. It can only be done following successful completion of some other certified residency. It considers the training you have received in your prior residency, and, in most cases, it is able to use the prior experience to cover most of the general requirements toward completion of an ONMM residency. Therefore, you can obtain a second board eligibility for a stand-alone specialty in ONMM with just 1 additional year of training.

There are also some programs offering a combined residency. For example, some programs have fused the curriculum for Family Medicine and ONMM to allow a 4-year program that will allow the resident to become board eligible for both specialties at the end of 4 years.
