Preamble:
The mission of
the European Registry
for Osteopathic Physicians (EROP)
is to define the conception and significance of
Osteopathic Medicine within health care systems in
Europe.
The basis of this declaration
is the philosophy and
practice of Osteopathy
founded in the 19th century by Dr. A.T.
Still M.D., D.O. The aim of the EROP is to transform
and evolve the concepts of A.T. Still into the
scientific world of the 21st century.
Osteopathic Medicine is an
extension and
completion of the regular medical system in the
context of integrated patient care focused upon both
evidence-based and patient centred medicine.
EROP is organized to advance
the philosophy and practice of OM throughout Europe
while promoting
excellence in
osteopathic medical education, research and health
care delivery. EROP emphasizes highly qualified and
well trained Osteopathic Physicians to ensure a safe
and efficient Osteopathic
care
for all patients.
