COMP & COMP-NW: Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine

We, at the College of Osteopathic Medicine of the Pacific and COMP-Northwest, remain committed to ushering a new generation of osteopathic physicians who serve their patients with purpose, passion, and proficiency. The faculty and staff at both campuses inspire a shared vision of a student-centered, inter-professional approach to learning with a meaningful emphasis on humanistic health care. We strive to model the way for our students and alumni by being leaders in our profession, our communities, and in the realm of academia. Today’s advanced technology and the ever-growing body of medical knowledge continue to move COMP and COMP-Northwest into a new era of medicine. A vigorous desire to heal combined with their strong medical education makes our students stand apart from the rest. Our students thrive in a culture of patient-focused care because they practice on a foundation of professionalism, benevolence, and respect. They understand that while they practice the art of medicine with their heads, they must never forget to use their hearts.

Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine California & Oregon

Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) see patients, prescribe medications, perform surgeries, and deliver babies in hospitals, medical centers, and offices across the United States and overseas. Whether they are primary care providers or specialists, DOs use all the standard tools of modern medicine, but also have additional therapeutic modalities with which to care for their patients.

Commitment to Humanism

Humanism is at the core of WesternU and encompasses values that we regard to be vital to our mission in health care, education, and community. These values include acceptance, altruism, compassion, diversity, empathy, fairness, inclusion, integrity, kindness, and respect. We embrace Humanism as a primary principle that shapes our actions, interactions, and institutional culture. Embracing Humanism empowers us to grow as individuals and as a community. It is a lifelong and daily commitment—one that requires intention, action, and reflection. Only through this ongoing practice can we truly embody WesternU Humanism and fulfill our mission to teach, to learn and heal together.
