When a doctor is referred to as a "DO" it means the doctor is a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine.

A "do" or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine is a doctor who's job is to focus on the muscular and skeletal systems to treat problems throughout the body.

The "DO" doctor is just a specialist in the field of muscular and skeletal systems of our bodies.
