The Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine Podcast Benjamin Greene, D.O.

As a kid, I thought I'd make a great veterinarian like my dad. But I came to see the beautiful mess of joy and heartache among my fellow humans as the place where I wanted to invest my compassion. From a South Dakota farm boy with plenty of siblings to Leukemia survivor to medical school, ONMM residency and beyond, I'm excited to take on a new adventure of "podcaster" as a life long learner and ONMM enthusiast. I'm Dr. Jordan Little D.O. to celebrate the passing of the torch to as the new interim host, I chatted with Dr. Ben Greene talk about the lessons I've learned in practicing compassion little by little.

From 11yrs old she knew she was going to be a doctor
and chef. Her parents, of Chinese descent, came to the US from Myanmar. They were adventurous and enjoyed new experiences, never being afraid to be out of their comfort zone. Dr. Tham is much the same.  A doctor, chef, triathlete, mountaineer and a linguist. She is kind, caring and loves to teach. Enjoy this unconventional conversation
with Mo-Ping Tham, DO.

At 14 years old she contracted E.coli, which led to
sepsis and many subsequent health challenges. Later a polyglandular autoimmune syndrome which led to chronic fatigue during medical school. She was disappointed there was not more education on lifestyle modifications to optimize health. This led her to seek knowledge on Integrative medicine, and acupuncture. At a Helms Medical Acupuncture Institute course she met a few osteopathic physicians who introduced her to osteopathic manipulative treatment. Finding herself living in the town where osteopathy was founded she applied to the plus one year at the ONMM residency in Kirksville, MO. Now she will be the OMM course director of the second year osteopathic medical students at ATSU. We are fortunate to have her in our profession and thank her for the
work she is doing forming the next generation of osteopathic physicians.

After a near death experience, he realized his life had a purpose - that of serving others. He wasn’t sure what this would look like until he worked with an osteopathic physician. Then and there he knew this was his path. During medical school he participated in a 40 hour cranial course which helped him appreciate in a knew way the dignity of the person and the patient. Now working as a traveling physician, he sees how the philosophy of osteopathy treating the whole person Body, Mind and Spirit is important to improve our healthcare system and as a juxtaposition from the influence of purely technocratic data driven approach to a person’s health. He also works as part of the marketing committee for the Osteopathic Cranial Academy Foundation, promoting osteopathy to the public and the future generation of osteopathic physicians. Enjoy the conversation.

This was a really enjoyable and edifying conversation with a compassionate soul, concerned with respecting the dignity of the differently abled population often hidden from society and sometimes shunned by the public. Listen to his story as he shares how he learned about osteopathy from Viola Frymann, DO and how and why he started Hands with Heart Foundation.

This past weekend a few of us MSU residents decided to take a road trip to the birthplace of osteopathy – Kirksville, MO. Some of the highlights were visiting the Museum of Osteopathy, Dr. Still’s gravesite, touching the
boots he wore and the staff he used. Jason, our guide, did an incredible job recounting the history and showing that although Still had his gifts he also had his limitations. I hope every osteopath is able to make it to Kirksville,
and if you can’t well here are a few stories to share what it’s like.
