The ACOI Fellowship is an incredible opportunity to demonstrate your commitment to the osteopathic internal medicine community. If you are considering taking your career and your ACOI membership to the next level, and want to step into a new leadership role, this is a wonderful way to do so.
Here’s what past Fellows have shared about what this honor means to them:
 | “Being a Fellow of ACOI has given me a lot of new friendships—it's opened the door for connections and networking that I didn’t think was available.” - Cassi Jones, DO, FACOI |
 | “Becoming a Fellow signifies your commitment to our osteopathic internal medicine profession, and when I was able to have that opportunity, it was a very, very special moment for me.” - Watson Ducatel, DO, FACOI |
 | “I applied to become an ACOI Fellow because I really believe in the vision and mission of the organization and how it empowers physicians.” - Kardie Tobb, DO, FACOI |
