Texas Society of the American College of Osteopathic Family Physicians

Osteopathic Pledge of Commitment

As members of the osteopathic medical profession, in an effort to instill loyalty and strengthen the profession we recall the tenets on which this profession is founded - the dynamic interaction of mind, body and spirit; the body's ability to heal itself; the primary role of the musculoskeletal system; and preventive medicine as they key to maintain health.  We recognize the work our predecessors have accomplished in building the profession, and we commit ourselves to continuing that work.

 

I pledge to:

 

Provide compassionate, quality care to my patients

Partner with them to promote health

Display integrity and professionalism throughout my career

Advance the philosophy, practice and science of osteopathic medicine

Continue life-long learning

Support my profession with loyalty in action word and deed; and

Live each day as an example of what an osteopathic physician should be.
