This is the CEO of the Podiatry college in England I believe
As CEO @CollegePodiatry
I have 3 main challenges for 2020
1. Get a larger number of people to apply for Podiatry as a career
2. Promote this wonderful profession to the general public
3. Make sure Podiatrist’s are a key member of the health delivery teams. Happy 2020

Larry laughing to the bank selling pretty little lies and dreams and hopes and somedays. Someday never came.
Another interesting article. Kind of makes me feel warm and fuzzy that there are thieves outside of the foot and ankle biz In Alaska, John Zipperer Jr., MD, faces criminal charges that he billed Medicaid for more than a million medically unnecessary urine tests. Prosecutors said he required all patients to submit a urine sample at every office visit, regardless of diagnosis, with multiple tests run on each sample. The result: $9 million in total billings during 2013-2015, an amount 10 times higher than all other providers in the Alaska Medicaid system combined. He is also accused of paying a… Read more »
Boris, this is interesting and definitely salient. The ACFAS and APBM have no doubt BUILT A PROFITABLE BUSINESS from a captive audience. The judge is wrong because it’s true that it’s nearly impossible to maintain privilege’s and insurance reimbursement without certification. SO… that POWER allows the boards to add whatever they desire to FORCE YOU TO BUY IN. You really are forced. You CAN’T PRACTICE WITHOUT IT SO YOU ARE FORCED, UNLESS YOU WANT TO LOSE YOUR ABILITY TO MAKE A LIVING. The most IMPORTANT POINT IS SUMMARIZED IN THE STATEMENT re: M.O.C. : “DECEPTIVE, BECAUSE THERE IS NO EVIDENCE… Read more »

Sorry that this is off topic, but it’s interesting.

Did Earl “Boots” Horowitz, DPM require Maintenance of Certification (MOC) of all his specialty sham boards ?
I’ll bet not……………. If you passed once, you were grandfathered sham status for a lifetime.
Boots was a podiatrist to the bitter end. a hustler.
Goal 1. Get money. Goal 2. Get more money. Goal 3. Repeat goals 1 and 2. 4. Die
The disease has spread. The propaganda has taken seed. The point of podiatry (politically) is greed. The U.K. QUACK SCHOOLS are using the same talking points as U.S. podiatry school FRANCHISE BUSINESSES. What MEDICAL school has to con, induce, and sell seats? What medical profession NEEDS to PROMOTE ITSELF? How many general surgeons are hawking “got LRQ PAIN? See me for an appendectomy! When a human has real NON ELECTIVE disease they don’t need a COUPON, an office with a FISH TANK, or a Room with the Wizard of Oz theme; nor do they compete with a “GOOD APPENDIX STORE”… Read more »
Another anglo Saxon country doing what they do best—-hustling and huckstering
