Interface: Mechanism of Spirit in Osteopathy

Biographie de R. Paul Lee, DO

Robert Paul Lee, DO, grew up and went to college in the same locale where Andrew Taylor Still, MD, DO grew the concepts and received the revelations that led to his discovery of Osteopathy. Years before Dr. Lee was aware of the existence of either Dr. Still or Osteopathy, he sat on the edge of "Mount Oread" on the campus of the University of Kansas contemplating the cosmic concepts of life while gazing east into the broad valley where Dr.
Still read medicine under the tutelage of his father on the Wakarusa Shawnee Indian Mission, now Eudora, KS. In college, Lee studied biochemistry and physiology and then, after a four-year stint of selling pharmaceuticals and being introduced to osteopathic physicians in practice, he then went on to receive his DO degree from the University of Health Sciences, College of Osteopathic Medicine in Kansas City, Missouri in 1976.
After some years practicing family medicine, in 1985, he became determined to learn more about Osteopathy's treatment of health problems related to structure-function and completed a residency in Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine at the AT Still University, College of Osteopathic Medicine in Kirksville, Missouri where in 1892 Dr. Still started the first osteopathic school. Dr. Lee then returned to Oregon to practice Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine at Eastmoreland Hospital in the Department of Osteopathic Services, where he eventually became the director.
In 1991 Lee moved to Durango, Colorado where he established a private practice in OMM. He retired in 2020.
