The Podiatry Fantasy of MD Equality

The Podiatry Fantasy of MD Equality

The fantasy continues.  Someday podiatry will be equal to the MD.  Haven’t you heard this before ? 

Add more years to podiatry and it will be ACGME accredited.  It’s the fault of CPME, this is not the case. 

Not the fact that podiatry is not a recognized medical specialty. 

Not the fault of the podiatry schools which would rather teach toenail care than psychiatry. 

Not the fact that the majority of so called podiatry residencies are in non-ACGME approved hospitals. 

Not the fact that ABPM worries about biomechanics examinations rather than gynecology.

Reality.  CPME can add 20 years of additional requirements on residencies.  Nothing will change. 

Chiropractors could add 20 years to their training, a chiropractor remains a chiropractor.

A podiatrist, no matter how many letters after their name, remains a podiatrist. 

Read the ACGME rules and regulations.  They are free online.  Read them.

If your education and degree are not recognized, which they are not, why would you believe that more unrecognized education will somehow lead to MD equivalence. 

So called educators such as Dr. Leonard Levy and Dr. Lawrence Harkless have had every opportunity to convert the “podiatry experience” but failed to do so.

Barry continues to publish this tripe.  I suppose it’s the classic “if you say a lie often enough it will become truth”.

Think of it this way.  If pedorthists added 4 years to their education as shoe and orthotic makers/dispensers, would you recognize them as equal to DPM ?

Only if the education and training and residency were equivalent to a DPM you would say.  Well ?   Now do you understand ?

It’s been said before.  If you want an MD degree you go to medical school.  Not “podiatric medical school”.  

They are not the same, no matter how long the unrecognized DPM takes to attain. 

No matter how many ankles you fix. 

No matter how many biomechanics examinations Dr. Rogers makes you do.

CPME is not the problem.

APMA is the problem.

Podiatry colleges are the problem.

The inferior DPM education is the problem.

The failure to meet ACGME standards is the problem.

The public through its legislators protecting themselves from podiatry is the problem.

Podiatry is podiatry’s problem.  

It is a profession waiting for a wizard to give their scarecrows a degree.

Fantasy………….

Dear Mister Chastkins,
What exactly was the Chastins procedure? Could you please give in clear and convincing detail what that procedure was and how it is performed. Thank you

Daniel Chaskin

Robert, in order to make a knowlegeable statement about the experimental Chaskin procedure
one has to see the powerpoint presentation at http://www.journalofdermoscopy.com
If you or anyone refuses to view the power point presentation, please do not make any prejudments about it.
I feel one cannot comment about any powerpoint presentation posted on the internet before first viewing it.

When you look at silly shoe pics, then get that “stress relief” (wink, wink) and write into the shlock’s propaganda rag about during “stressful” times, people need silly shoe pics for “stress relief”.

That’s the Chatskin procedure. Also known as the Simp Procedure.

The fantasy of porkject this, that, the other, keeps the dogs barking, and someday talk to be just around the corner….we all know it’s bs. But, for the 98.7% , they believe this propaganda and think someday, hence, why the dues and fees keep flowing in.

AARGH! PODIATRY IS THE BUFFALO BILLS OF MEDICINE. BOTH LOSERS!!!

Chicago RRA Trained
Member

Robert is mistaken on two accounts.

The Buffalo Bills disrespect our national anthem. Glad they lost. If they never win another game it’s fine with me. Kansas City stood at attention during the anthem. The only similarity of podiatry to the Buffalo Bills is that they both hide in a tunnel.

Podiatry is to medicine what Barney Fife was to law enforcement.

robert bijak
Member
robert bijak

Yeah, I don’t know what’s up with the anthem thing. I didn’t like it and that’s not representative of BLUE COLLAR BUFFALO. To me it represents the contamination that liberals and delusionists have subtlety infected all aspects of society. The same mindset is found in podiatry. Unrealistic promises, waste, and a class system with an unbridled loyalty to a perverted philosophy. Podiatry and liberalism are an insult to GOOD MEN AND THE TRUTH.

Why should I go away if you keep mentioning about me?
Please provide a link showing gangrenous osteomyelitic toes that healed and had the soft tissue regrow to the extent as the pictures posted in http://www.journalofdermscopy.com
Perhaps no such link exists since this was a new experimental procedure I invented that needs more clinical trials.
With the patient’s history of a coagulation necrosis in his toes, a transmetatarsal amputation recommended by the vascular specialist likely would have resulted in nonhealing, and I believe he would have ended up losing his leg.

How to http://www.journalofdermodcopy.com

See pictures posted at powerpoint presentation.

Such pictures will demonstrate the coagulation necrosis. You will clearly see if an MD diagnosed this and any lab report showing this diagnosis.
Not all MD s or Podiatrists remember all coagulation problems and they rely upon lab report s.

However, powerpoint presentation of pictures, lab results and pictures of results of a successful treatment
Is a call for more clinical trials as in any
newly invented experimental procedure.

Removal of osteomyelitic bone, use a dermatoscopic pre debridement of outside and inside of skin, have a lab report and targeted antibiotic powder into the wound, offloading, series of debridements.
Problem is that prior to ulcer debridement,a map of which structure s to debride is provided with an image of polarized light. This avoids unnecessary debridement of collagen.
My opinion Experimental Dermatoscopic wound care might not only be limited to podiatry. MDd might be interested.
This might mean less surgical major amputation cases for residents, but think of the potential to prevent pain suffering and morbidity.

As far as how it was done, there is a powerpoint presentation.
Osseous removal, powdered antibiotics applied into the wound, dermatoscopic debridement, etc…

Truth in advertising

I am a 4th year student at Michigan State Univ. I got into Osteopathic Medical school. Thought I would post this>>> my research into Podiatry revealed a profession that has no goals, no respect, false advertising, splintered groups and making someone do 7 years of education for a limited license makes no sense. Also. when visiting Podiatrists in the Michigan area, too many said, don’t do it, go to med school. Was asked to post this by my friend who is a DPM, third year in practice and starving.
