Uh ohhh !

Uh ohhh !

With just 2 weeks to go, it appears the APMA annual junk science meeting is going to be another disaster. 
Less than 600 are registered thus far, including speakers and exhibitors. And the free-loading APMA board, officers and insiders.
Covid ?  Inflation ?  Travel difficulties ?  Orlando in August ?   Same shit different year ?  Enough of Lehrman, Kesselman ?  Enough Jublia commercials ?  Enough DumbSantis the village idiot ?
Another flop by the APMA.  Can’t wait for the spin and phony numbers we will hear from them. Eat well Ira.  Drool well Larry.  Maybe King can stop by the fixator booth for a quick leg lengthening.
APMA.  Another joke meeting by a joke organization.

Armstrong and Joseph look like immature silly queers.

The plaques is a classic useless, meaningless “in recognition of..” with Wu looking like an excited high school student.
Armstrong manifests psychic damage with a FORCED, FAKE, FOOT FAKER smile.
Note near empty attendance at foot lecture.

Podiatry and its’ clubs (America) are places that people came to because they were unsatisfied with themselves and wanted to become someone else. Take a look at American movies and see how many of the plots, threadbare as they are, turn upon somebody being “really somebody else.” On the contrary, for example, no one in Anna Karenina or Emma is anyone but him or her self. The exceptions are always criminal. Look at instructions on how to succeed in business by pretending to be successful. To be American you must be fake. Forget substance, or character; just focus on superficiality… Read more »

Plots that “work” are often well written produced, and directed. Plot, character structure. Actors are just the paint, often expensive paint, but if the story works it works. Lead characters have to adapt to and follow the script, stick to it line by line, little wiggle room. The writing or creation of the characters requires a dramatic need, point of view, character/attitude, and an arc (rotten person is transformed through a series of intentions and obstacles). Often an inciting event occurs at plot point one, a knock on the door, a man with a gun, a sexy broad, conflict and… Read more »

Case studies in delusions, denials, fantasies, and brainwashing. “The definition of podiatry should allow a podiatrist to prescribe medications that may affect systemic organs, but for which the purpose is to treat a foot condition. With such a definition, podiatrists should be allowed to Rx insulin for a foot with a diabetic neuropathy. A license is not a right to Rx without training and experience. But a license opens a path for training from an internist, endocrinologist, etc. I remember years ago when I asked if a podiatrist could treat PVD in the foot with Trental even if other parts… Read more »

Yes Mr. MD’s you have just read the mentality of a PODIATRIST named DANIEL CHASKIN. Just one of the types “graduated” from the NYC franchise. Convoluted, illogical, simple. Definitely not DOCTORAL material. U.S. podiatrists really should have the BACHELOR’S DEGREE MISTER TITLE as most other countries. As long as we have Chaskins, Block’s, shoe pictures and money lovers like KESSELMAN, keep podiatry FAR AWAY from a broader scope without first getting a REAL MEDICAL EDUCATION. YOU CAN’T BE PART DOCTOR. YOU EITHER ARE OR YOU’RE NOT.

CHASKIN wants to RX INSULIN!!! His dangerous thinking is as follows: diabetes affects the foot. Diabetics need insulin. Therefore Podiatrists should be able to RX Insulin. Totally oblivious to the full body and systemic effects he oversimplifies. He says we can RX Trental… Read more »

Robert, informal podiatric training and or experience in a hospital setting is safe because a hospital quality assurance program oversees this. Sometimes attendings who teach podiatric residents in formal podiatric programs did not have certified formal podiatric themselves due to a shortage of programs. They may have become board certified in podiatric medicine or surgery. Please Google Joint Commission Standards and see if Board certification is an excellent benchmark and to be considered.

Robert, 1. A podiatrist in at least one state is licensed to Rx any drug to treat any foot condition even if such a drug affects other body parts. Thus if a podiatrist can affect other body parts to treat any foot condition, then they should be licensed to treat those conditions that are already affected by the drugs prescribed for a foot condition. (This reasoning I feel as a similar analogy to the law that allows a podiatrist to be licensed treat a leg wound in the presence of a contiguous foot wound but who loses the ability to… Read more »

I only agree with some statements. Podiatrists are trained to be limited licensed practitioners.

Others do agree with my beliefs. I just succeeded in getting licensed in another state and recently joined another hospital. The hospital agrees with my opinion because I was granted privileges.

There was no “shortage”. Podiatry was (is) UNRECOGNIZED and was a PRIVATE SCHOOL FRANCHISE SYSTEM BUSINESS THAT WAS NEVER WANTED OR NEEDED IN MAINSTREAM MEDICINE.

You didn’t even qualify for YOUR OWN QUACK PROGRAMS. Don’t rationalize your failure.

Robert, hope all is well with you.
Formal certified podiatric residency training can be bypassed in instances where there were residency shortages. My opinion is in some cases not getting a residency match had nothing to do with ones qualification to get a program.
If there was no shortage of programs in 1984 prove it by telling me how many graduated there were and how many programs existed.
By the way, if my opinion differs from yours, this is not justification for podiatry to get rid of someone with a difference of opinions.
Please have a wonderful day.

Chaskin, if a license does NOT give the right to perform incompetent care does reading something from a book like you propose give you the privilege to perform incompetent care? If you think it does, let’s close down the schools and apprenticeships, let everyone just read books and open up their foot store.

Daniel
Guest

some people are visual learners and retain information read. This can enable some podiatrists to upgrade their skill set, scrub with others who can perform such care independently and upgrade their skills.
Thus formal podiatry residency training can be bypassed and informal training accomplished resulting in competent podiatric care.
This is how I succeeded in obtaining licenses in multiple states and hospital privileges.
