(ON-DEMAND ACOI 2025) HPV For Internists: Warts and More

Tyler Cymet, DO, serves as Chair of Medicine and Primary Care at the newly approved Illinois College of Osteopathic Medicine at The Chicago School, while also working PRN in emergency departments for the University of Maryland. Much of his life, he says, has been devoted to work and watching his wife raise their 16-year-old daughter. An extreme introvert, Tyler enjoys reading, writing, and using social media as a way to be social while still alone. Ever curious, he’s known for exploring wherever he goes in search of new knowledge and interesting experiences, finding people both fascinating and perplexing—and still trying to understand them, himself included.

Tyler completed his internal medicine residency at Yale, earned a teaching certificate from Harvard, and was on faculty at Johns Hopkins. He is recognized for co-describing Erondu-Cymet Syndrome and for his work identifying and caring for victims of the 2001 Postal Anthrax Attack. With over a hundred peer-reviewed publications, roughly 20 grants, seven books, two dictionaries, and hundreds of traffic camera citations to his name, he frequently works from home consulting on medical education for clients ranging from the Egyptian Government to the Independent Nation of Samoa, as well as lawyers and a host of other groups—some brilliant and caring, some less so. Tyler cherishes being a “ten-fingered physician,” continuing to practice OMM both in his office and his own living room. He is credited with establishing the core OMM curriculum, authoring the official glossary of osteopathic terminology, and producing a video textbook with Lecturio. His contributions also include work for AACOM and writing over 60 segments for Discovery Network’s Untold Stories of the ER and other series. Above all, Tyler is known as a kind person who wants to make everyone healthy and happy.
