NEWSWEEK MAGAZINE Error:Richard Jadick DO: Osteopathic Physician and War Hero

Newsweek magazine has a cover article titled: “He Saved 30 Lives in One Battle…Hero MD The Amazing Story of the War’s Most Fearless Doctor.”

Unfortunately, Newsweek identified Dr. Jadick as an MD, not the DO he is, who graduated from the New York College of Osteopathic Medicine.

I urge Newsweek to inform its readers that there are two types of physicians in the US – DOs and MDs – and cease using “MD” as a synonym for all physicians.
