The Fellow of the American Academy of Osteopathy (FAAO) is an earned post-doctoral designation conferred by the American Academy of Osteopathy. Academy members who earn the FAAO designation have demonstrated outstanding understanding and execution of osteopathic principles in teaching, research and the treatment of patients.* (from American Academy of Osteopathy website). It takes 2 years to obtain the FAAO and lots of mentoring and assistance. The pictures below are many who supported Dr. Dave on his journey.
