VLVL2 (9.5): "Licensed DOM's"

[Dave Monroe]

   "'Since you were here with us last, we've built up
a good medical unit--couple of licensed DOM's on the
staff now, some new therapy machines--and while we 
don't see that many Ninja Death Touch cases, your
victim has a better chance the sooner you can get him
up here.'" (VL, Ch. 9, p. 154)

p. 154 "Licensed DOM's" = Doctor of Medicine?

DOMs receive four years of training, and must past a
test ensuring their knowledge in appropriate methods
of acupuncture, before becoming licensed.
