Bruce B. Cunningham, D.O.

As an osteopathic physician (DO or Doctor of Osteopathy) I have the best of both modern-high tech medicine and the skills of manipulative training to treat common neck, back and other mucsuloskeletal problems.  I approach my patients as if they were my own family, insisting that they receive the best possible care at a reasonable cost.  One of the great joys of family practice is developing long term relationships with people who trust us to advise them in both simple and complex, life changing issues.  It is an honor to serve this community.
 
To become a physician it takes many teachers and exposure to many patients to sharpen our skills.  For this reason I serve as an Adjunct Professor for 3 Universities, frequently having students rotate through the office.  I find that the interaction with these young and fertile minds challenges and upgrades my own skills as a physician.

Range of Practice

From delivering babies to nursing home care I enjoy the diversity of family medicine.  For many years I have served the TartanHigh School football team as team physician.  I have served our medical group as Chair of Quality Improvement, Chair of Pulmonary Medicine, member of Behavioral Health, and currently Chair of the Electronic Medical Records Committee.
