How did this change come about? In 2007, after thoughtful consideration, Dr. Tripp made the inspired decision to change her career and become an osteopathic physician. Her inspiration for this career change was the combination of learning about and experiencing osteopathic medicine as a patient of Andrew Goldman, D.O. and weekly volunteer with Hugh Ettlinger, D.O., St. Barnabas Hospital, Bronx, NY. The work of osteopathic medicine is extremely compelling to Dr. Tripp. The reward of caring for people by finding and supporting their health became a new calling for her and moved her to want to become an osteopathic physician.
Dr. Tripp graduated from the University of New England College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2011 with awards and recognition for her excellence and talents in osteopathic manipulative medicine. She completed her required post graduate osteopathic medical education in excellent standing at both Berkshire Medical Center in Pittsfield, MA and St. Barnabas Hospital, Bronx, NY.
Dr. Tripp has distinguished herself throughout her training in osteopathic medicine. In addition to receiving numerous awards and scholarships as an osteopathic medical student and resident, she is an invited member of A Still Sutherland Study Group and the Biobasics teaching faculty. Now she brings her love and extensive knowledge of nature, her remarkable dedication to health and wellness for all, and her compassionate gifts in the practice of osteopathy to the practice of Andrew M. Goldman, D.O..
