PCOM Georgia
Since 2005, PCOM Georgia has trained Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) students from Georgia and the surrounding states. Our goal is to prepare students for excellence in the practice of osteopathic medicine.
PCOM Georgia is proud to celebrate a 100% postgraduate placement rate for the Class of 2026.
As a PCOM Georgia medical student, you will learn to gain insight into your patient's healthcare needs by looking beyond the person and discovering the social and economic factors that impact them. We encourage our students to adopt a "Doctor from Day One" mindset as they work to meet their professional and educational goals.
The Suwanee campus is located in metro Atlanta, just 27 miles north of downtown Atlanta, Georgia. It features a state-of-the-art learning environment with instruction delivered by expert and accomplished faculty.
The osteopathic medicine curriculum combines lectures and applied, firsthand learning exercises to instruct students in patient care and clinical science principles. Our medical students regularly work with simulation equipment and live patient actors to gain invaluable experience in clinical procedures and treatments.
As a student in PCOM Georgia's DO program, you will learn anatomy, physiology, microbiology, pharmacology, clinical medicine and more in a cohesive, interdisciplinary fashion during your first and second years. As a third- and fourth-year student, you'll work at hospitals and health clinics in the greater Atlanta area under the direction of accomplished physicians in order to develop your clinical skills in all aspects of patient care. Through participation in rounds, lectures, conferences, morning reports and case presentations, you will develop skills in history taking, physical examination, differential diagnosis as well as invasive and non-invasive procedures.

Kala Hurst, MS, DO '22
“At PCOM Georgia, we learned the nuts and bolts of medicine, but we also learned that medicine at its core is about caring for people and caring for each other.”
Sahara Peters, DO '24
“The integration of hands-on training and osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) gave me a well-rounded approach to care that I knew would shape me into a compassionate and versatile physician.”
Madison Cohen, MS, DO '25
“PCOM has provided an ideal setting for me to grow into a physician who values both scientific rigor and compassionate, patient-centered care. Looking ahead, I plan to carry these experiences forward as a physician by remaining actively involved in leadership, mentorship, patient advocacy and academic scholarship.”

In addition, many of our medical students choose to pursue non-primary care specialties such as emergency medicine, surgery, anesthesiology, neurology, psychiatry, urology and more.

Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine’s osteopathic medical programs are dedicated to fostering the growth of the osteopathic profession by training physicians through programs of medical study guided by osteopathic medical tradition, concept and practice in a learning community built on the values of diversity and respect.
The College’s undergraduate medical programs prepare students for success in graduate medical education and the graduate medical education programs prepare students for the independent practice of osteopathic medicine. The College will be responsive to the healthcare needs of the respective regions and communities in which the osteopathic medical programs are offered. 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.
The primary focus of PCOM Georgia is to recruit and educate students from Georgia and the surrounding states. PCOM Georgia seeks to retain graduate osteopathic physicians, pharmacists, physical therapists, biomedical scientists and other healthcare professionals in the Southeast, to serve the health needs of the region and advance the professions of osteopathic medicine, pharmacy and physical therapy.
The Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) programs at PCOM's main Philadelphia campus, a branch campus in Suwanee, Georgia and an additional location in Moultrie, Georgia are accredited by the Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation (COCA) of the American Osteopathic Association (AOA).
DOs receive thorough training in osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM)—the use of the hands to diagnose, treat and prevent illness or injury.
Our DO program courses are highly personalized, presenting plenty of opportunities for discussion and developing relationships with faculty.
In addition to teaching duties, PCOM Georgia faculty are active physicians and researchers,
thus bringing unique perspectives to their lectures and labs.
