Foundation: 1899

Mission: Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine (PCOM) is dedicated to the education of students in medicine, health and behavioral sciences. The College fosters the growth of the osteopathic profession by training physicians through programs of study guided by osteopathic medical tradition, concept and practice. PCOM is committed to the advancement of knowledge and intellectual growth through teaching and research, and to the well-being of the community through leadership and service.

Vision: PCOM will assume its position of national leadership in osteopathic thought, education and musculoskeletal therapies. Our leadership role will not be limited to maintaining the existing osteopathic tenets; it will involve them, expanding them to other healthcare providers, and incorporating them in inter-professional education. By generalizing the osteopathic concept and also focusing attention on the preventive, holistic and patient-centered aspects of osteopathic philosophy, we will make osteopathy more accessible to patients.
