Grandview Medical Center, which is comprised of Grandview and Southview Hospitals, Charles H. Huber Health Center, Victor J. Cassano, Sr. Health Center, Preble County Medical Center, Sycamore Women’s Center, Grandview Center for Circulatory Disorders and Wound Treatment, Grandview Center for Rehabilitation, Pain Management Center, Joslin Diabetes Center and Dayton Sports Medicine Institute, is the second largest osteopathic healthcare system in the United States.
As the Dayton area's only Osteopathic hospitals, Grandview and Southview Hospitals feature the largest single base of primary care physicians in the region, with over 2,000 employees and more than 350 physicians on staff. In Dayton alone, osteopathic physicians, or DOs, care for a quarter of a million people with over one million patient visits each year.
Osteopathic and allopathic physicians have identical treatment methods available to them, such as the ability to prescribe medication, perform surgery and order diagnostic tests. However, osteopathic physicians have the added dimension of specialized training in the musculoskeletal and nervous systems, which comprise 65 percent of the body.
