:''This article discusses osteopathic physicians practicing medicine in Canada, for non-physician osteopathic practitioners, see Osteopathy in Canada.'' : Osteopathic medicine in Canada is similar to conventional medicine in Canada, but also attempts to bring additional benefits of osteopathic manipulative techniques to diagnose and treat patients. Osteopathic medicine (medical) as opposed to osteopathy (non-medical) requires the osteopathic physician to be trained and receive the Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree. Though licensure requirements for physicians varies by province in Canada, osteopathic physicians are generally able to obtain a license to practice medicine throughout the country. The Canadian Osteopathic Association is the largest association of osteopathic physicians in Canada. Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (DOs) should not be confused with non-physician osteopaths. Currently, there are no DO programs outside the United States. DO programs are accredited by the Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation (COCA).〔()〕 The authority for licensure of osteopathic physicians lies with the provincial Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons.〔(Canadian Osteopathic Practice (.doc) )〕〔( Ontario Medicine Act – Restricted Titles, Section 9 )〕〔College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (Doctor of Osteopathy Registration Policy Statement )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.cpsbc.ca/files/u6/HPA-Bylaws.pdf )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.canlii.org/en/ab/laws/stat/rsa-2000-c-m-11/latest/rsa-2000-c-m-11.html )〕〔(Use of Titles ) Albert Health Professions Act Schedule 21〕 ==Licensing requirements for osteopathic physicians== This is a summary of the licensing requirements of osteopathic physicians in Canada:〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.osteopathic.org/inside-aoa/development/licensure/Documents/AOA_International_Licensure_Summary_2013.pdf )〕 The Canadian Osteopathic Association recently started the Canadian Osteopathic Medical Student Organization. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Osteopathic medicine in Canada」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
