Today on D.O. or Do not we interview Matthew Mené. After our discussion with Professional Comedian David Segul in episode 66, we thought it would be interesting to speak with a D.O. urologist about what “really goes on” with a physician when a male has issues with infertility. Dr. Mené will speak about his journey into osteopathic medicine in a seven year program, how he became interested in urology and how hard work and dedication earned him the opportunity to train in Philadelphia in a competitive surgical subspecialty. He will comment on how he feels that the ACGME merger has made obtaining Urology Fellowship more difficult for D.O. students. For medical students and residents interested in osteopathic school and urology residency, we would recommend more research into this as although it may be true, we do not have data to support or refute the comment.
