Rijo Philip, DO

Dr. Rijo Philip is Board Certified in Family Medicine and Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment. He grew up in North Texas and completed medical school at the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine in Fort Worth.

The first tenets of osteopathic medicine established by A.T. Still are: 1) a patient is a unit of mind, body, and spirit, and 2) the body has its own self-healing and self-regulating mechanisms. Dr. Philip holds to these principles and tries to help his patients achieve optimal health, especially through the healing touch of Osteopathic Manipulation.

Dr. Philip completed his undergraduate degree at Texas A&M University and a Master’s degree in Theology after spending several years in seminary formation. He is married to Megan, and they have two children, Mariyam and Joseph.
