A DO should have an excellent bedside manner. A doctor of osteopathic medicine (DO) may specialize in pediatrics or surgery. A DO may practice any field of medicine, including pediatrics. A DO may evaluate a patient's stress level and determine what effect it is having on that person's health. A doctor of osteopathic medicine may sometimes practice manipulation of the spine, which is similar to work done by chiropractors. A DO usually uses a holistic approach to treating patients. Doctors of osteopathic medicine tend to spend more time with patients.
test the water(s) âº to find out what people's opinions of something are before you ask them to do something. (Definition of âtest the water(s)â from the Cambridge Advanced Learnerâs Dictionary & Thesaurus Â© Cambridge University Press) test the water(s) in American English.
More specifically, a well test will allow prediction of the maximum rate at which water can be pumped from a well, and the distance that the water level in the well will fall for a given pumping rate and duration of pumping.ell testing differs from aquifer testing in that the behaviour of the well is primarily of concern in the former, while the characteristics of the aquifer (the geological formation or unit that supplies water to the well) are quantified in the latter.
