Oh, those mixed up foot doctors. On one hand you have the die hard biomechquacticians who think an arch support can cure most things. Like wise a nice shoe solves problems. On the other hand, there’s the holistic, medically oriented POD who knows, or at least intuits, that there are systemic conditions above the ankle and push for a more medical education. This incongruence indicates a basic flaw in quack school education. The business foot techs sees a MONEY OPPORTUNITY in SELLING ARCH SUPPORTS for back pain. The biomechquacticians, like HOWIE DANNENBERG, want to treat supra ankle conditions like iliopsoas… Read more »

I just got an email from a British man I treated 2 weeks ago for an ingrown nail with bad infection. He had it for over 3 months. Toe was swollen and foul odor with pus. I got him into the office an hour after he called begging for treatment. He was upset I wanted an x-ray to r/o bone pathology like osteomyelitis but I insisted. Thankfully all good. Did 11750 and Rx’d anitibiotics. Today I received his email demanding a refund on the x-rays (he has no insurance and is marrying and American woman to stay in the USA).… Read more »

Podiatrist=CHIROPODISTS in the rest of the world. If you had the big M.D. I doubt if you would be DISS’D like that. PODOCHIROPODISTS IN THE US ARE GIVEN A DILUTE “DOCTORATE” WHEREAS THE REST OF THE WORLD YOU’RE A “MISTER” with commensurate respect. Tell your story to the APMA at one of their big “conventions” and make the obese leaders squirm. Podiatry is, and will be, just podiatry unless there is a MAJOR CHANGE. As long as you stay subscribed to perverts like Barry Block and his PM News and pay the APMA, you will be asked for REFUNDS. ASK… Read more »

So now BAKO is offering a free video on how to do a nail unit “biopsy”. Intensive training needed and necessary. McClain and BAKO battle for your worthless toenail clippings. They offer workshops on how to do skin biopsy. And how to culture between the toes. WTF is going on out there ? Is anybody embarrassed ? Ashamed ? Disgusted ?

My conclusions : If you run an ad in PM News, the chances are 99% the announcement is for a scam. And the photo is that of a scam artist. If your picture is in PM News there is a 99% chance you are a crook, egomaniac, plain old nut job, shiester/huckster, or a quack. It is very sad that PM News is what it is. It is very sad that podiatry is now what it is. Maybe Ben Pearl can interview Danny Chaskin ?

Open letter to Mr chaskins: You appear to write in regularly to the barryster propaganda site. Why is that? You are obviously an old man, well into retirement age, still working, maybe it ‘s time to hang it up. Life is very very short as you say. If you can stop working, and start living that may help. Podiatry is not living. It’s controlled dying. How many more good years do you have left? Why waste it on podiatry? Also, why practice in a location where bars on doors and windows are required? Is that because it’s near a fix… Read more »

Ya gotta love those desperate dirty foot drs. Udell says fugit about it. Nut tins changed in wart tx since ’78. Podiatrist Lai says he WAS doing research on warts with PCR but went in a different direction. Where? and Why? He says it would be good if podiatry did some research. Don’t hold your breath. Podiatrist Secord says use BLEOMYCIN. He gets 98% success rate but he can’t prove it. It’s anecdotal observation. He also said there’s no research in podiatry because THERE’S NO MONEY IN IT!

The secrets out. No wonder the MD orthopedic surgeons hate dpm foot technicians. Jeff Tran-talus said he works FOR an MD orthopod who is a back surgeon. Poor MD. The foot tech is stealing and curing his back patients he says (anecdotally) just by putting heel lifts on “custom orthotics”. See? Those pts don’t need back surgery. Podiatry cures backs! Wtf. The MD is going out of business and should start selling shoes and arch supports too. Yeah, I believe it.

Oh no. I got negative votes. I take it all back. Podiatry is wonderful. Podiatry is necessary. Podiatrists are dedicated medical scientists. I was lying. I’m a hater. You win. I’ll go away. We need more podiatry schools. Podiatrists are “just like” and someday will have their MD’s. Shoes are important. Long toenails kill many elderly. Long live the prestigious D.P.M. degree. I want my grandchildren to become PODIATRISTS.

Todays PM Magazine represents all that is wrong with this rag and podiatry. It is a testimony to the low functional mental level of PM readers, to whom anything for a buck Barry appeals. We have a podiatrist who claims back surgery can be almost universally avoided with orthotics. That is correct. Forget the fact that back surgery is done for advanced disease with neurologic findings, eg: spinal stenosis with nerve compression, weakness, spasticity, etc. Can’t wait to hear the usual cadre of PM lunatics write in saying yep, we knew that all along. OMG those evil “back surgeons”. Don’t… Read more »

I’d love to meet the mind that thinks podiatry is academic. First explain why no colleges recognize dpm credits as transferable, then why no one knows what dpm means, followed by why, even the 2023 versions of computer programs, still ask for a spell check on dpm? Why do 3 year bachelor degree P.A.’s have a license to treat the entire body while most pods are forbidden to touch the ankle? How absolutely stupid or deluded do you have to be to defend the obvious inferiority of your dpm certificate? You just love hearing the term “dr” so you can… Read more »
